“a slight trend”

Subgroup Analysis Age stratification: Overall the age did not impact the outcome; however older patients aged > 60 years with positive ctDNA at baseline had a slight trend towards poor PFS compared to ctDNA negative patients [pHR = 1.62; 95%CI: 0.72–2.52, p < 0.001; I 2 = 71.28%], while younger patients (age ≤60 years) showed no difference ([pHR = 1.11; 95%CI: 0.39–1.84, p < 0.001; I 2 = 98.26%]; Supplementary Figure S3a ).

However, the AC estimates did not significantly differ between the two groups at T2 in any of the selected regions, albeit there was a slight trend in the RH_Cont_PFCl_3 (F (1,17) = 8.61, p = 0.02, uncorrected for multiple comparisons).

A slight trend toward increased “guideline-adherent screening” was observed as enterprises expanded their approaches (β = 0.11, p = 0.03).

Although the F-statistic suggests a slight trend towards a difference, it does not reach the conventional level of significance ( p < 0.05).

[ 3 ] found no differences in leptin levels and the number of active joints, although there was a slight trend in this relationship (r:0.10; p = 0.05).

Although the preoperative multivariate regression analysis did not reveal any significant factors associated with self-image, TL/L exhibited a slight trend ( p =0.053).

In terms of physical function, although there was a slight trend towards lower BI scores ( P = 0.058) in the SP before surgery, our findings indicated a significant decline in ambulatory capacity and an increased reliance on assistive tools upon discharge among individuals with sarcopenia.

Additionally, the median number of “fixations” per word in the middle row of the screen did not differ significantly between ACHM under dark and controls under light conditions, with even a slight trend suggesting lower fixation number in the ACHM ( p = 0.058; U = 15; Figure 2C ).

unspecified headaches, although there was a slight trend ( p = 0.0587) towards unspecified headaches being associated with slightly larger cysts (Table 2 ). 3.6 Natural History of Pineal Cyst Size All patients were recommended for a follow‐up MRI after 1 year.

A slight trend was observed between SFA/TFA ratio (p = 0.059), VFA/TFA ratio (p = 0.059), VFA/SFA ratio (p = 0.059), and the occurrence of a CD relapse (Table 3 ).

The average percentage of the non-vibrating proximal part of the antenna was 64% of the total length ( N =9), and was not significantly affected by total length although there was a slight trend (regression, P =0.06).

When the gene expression was determined in fibrosis patients (n = 41) compared to the control group (n = 32), a slight trend towards upregulation in VEGFA (fold change = 1.56, p = 0.0617), CXCL8 (fold change = 1.65, p = 0.1009), and CDKN1A (fold change = 2.13, p = 0.0148) was observed, without being statistically significant with the exception of the CDKN1A gene.

A slight trend in the beta diversity index was observed in the microbiome profile on d 35 ( P = 0.064).

A competitive index was calculated by examining the ratio of the indicated strains at each time point compared to the ratio at time zero, which revealed a slight trend towards increased fitness of the hybC mutant by 5 h ( p = 0.065, Figure 6 B).

For grass-finished steers, only AQI was detected to have a positive association ( P < 0.001), while negative associations were detected as a slight trend for CO ( P = 0.069) for Ozone ( P = 0.010), PM 2.5 ( P < 0.001), and PM 10 ( P < 0.001; Table 4 ).

The demographic characteristics of the patient cohort are described in Table 1 ; both groups were comparable, albeit with a slight trend towards high blood pressure as a comorbidity in patients who were hospitalized during follow-up appointments ( p = 0.07).

Comorbidities Interplay and Adverse Event Rate Overall, patients with headaches did not differ from NONH in terms of comorbidities: neurological ( p = 0.67), gastrointestinal ( p = 0.54), psychiatric ( p = 0.20), ophthalmologic ( p = 0.95), and metabolic ( p = 0.31) fields were not significantly different among the two groups, while only a slight trend was found for cardiovascular comorbidity ( p = 0.07), which was more represented in patients with headaches.

Patients who completed their telemedicine visits and then withdrew their consent for the subsequent clinic/research visit were similar in their demographics and psychosocial patterns, with only a slight trend for a lower pain intensity (NRS) of those who elected not to pursue a subsequent clinic visit (31.2 vs 20.2 p=0.07).

Suggesting a slight trend in favor of the experimental groups, although the overall result was not statistically significant ( p = 0.07).

From the 4th week of treatment, a slight trend towards a decreased clinical score was observed in the ATO-treated Fra2 TG mice as compared to the PBS group (median score [IQR]: 1 [1–2.75] vs. 2 [1–4]; p = 0.071) (Fig.

However, 60 mg/day CEP showed a slight trend (difference=-0.77 days, hazard ratio (HR) = 1.40, 95% CI 0.97–2.01, p = 0.072).

Whereas we saw no difference in the expression of Asf1a and Asf1b mRNAs, we see, cautiously interpreted, a slight trend of downregulation of H3.4 ( p = .077) and TSH2B ( p = .064) in seminaries versus normal testes.

The results of the correlation analysis between miR-542-3p and the genes under study indicate a slight trend towards a negative correlation between miR-542-3p and BMP7 in ectopic tissue (Rho = −0.358462, p = 0.078483) (see Figure 2 ).
