Patients with BRCA1/2 mutations were found to have significantly shorter rwPFS with T-DXd (7.8 versus 9.2 months, hazard ratio 1.40, P = 0.02), which is consistent with what was observed in the DESTINY-Breast04 trial, 34 and patients with PD-L1 CPS ≥10 appeared to have numerically longer rwPFS with T-DXd (12.6 versus 6.9 months, hazard ratio 0.70, P = 0.31), which is also consistent with a positive trend observed in patients with a higher level of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes in DESTINY-Breast04.

Figure 6a shows a strong correlation for both the borehole strainmeter and DAS data between the most important feature based on the SHAP scores (the maximum coefficient of the continuous wavelet transforms using the 3rd order Gaussian wavelets from 0.2–0.5 Hz), and maximum strain of the waveform in the first 4 s after the P -wave arrival, as well as a positive trend between higher values of those features and earthquake magnitude.

Additionally, in the LRM, RMSSD demonstrated a negative trend to associate with IL-12 levels, reaching significance in the GAM, while LF/HF exhibited a positive trend towards significance ( Table 4 ; Supplementary Figure S1 ). 4 Discussion HRV monitoring can evaluate ANS function in physiological and pathological scenarios.
Here, no significant association but only a positive trend between salivary IgA to MAA and the periodontal health status was observed.
Nevertheless, the results of a longitudinal study, which examined the transition process in adolescents, are consistent with the results of the present study showing a positive trend in the transition through smoking stages, and the transition process is usually progressive, and return is unlikely. 7 The predictors of transition in smoking stages Transition through smoking stages accelerated by increasing in age, not living with parents, SES, having a smoker friends, having a smoker in family, self-injury, substance abuse, attitude toward smoking, and general risk-taking behavior.
Overall, in the current study, the trend in urban and rural areas is quite the same: younger people use modern contraceptives more often than older people, which is a positive trend from a public health perspective.

Although the relationship between lead and cadmium and homocysteine was not robustly proven, there was still a positive trend.
However, the increasing IPV prevalence in Kalungu from 54.4% in 2017 to the current 71% indicates a positive trend and could be attributed to the increasing awareness about the vaccine among the caregivers, coupled with the routine and supplementary immunization activities conducted at both health centres and outreaches.
