“a slight trend”

4th Lockdown When comparing the total number of TBIs during the 4th closure, which took place at the turn of the year 2020/21, a slight trend was observed when comparing 2019/20 and 2020/21 (p = 0.13), but no significance could be reached for 2018/19 compared to 2019/20 (p = 0.73).

However, there was a slight trend toward greater number of AEs in those aged ≥18 years (median, 5 vs 3 and 2 in the youngest and middle cohorts, respectively; P = .13; Figure 4 C).

Although there was a slight trend favoring bridging therapy, it was not statistically significant (OR =1.3; 95% CI, 0.92–1.84; P = 0.14) ( Figure 6 ).

Characteristics and Factors Affecting Intention to Quit Among Current Smokers The mean age was 46.8 ± 13.7 years, with most of the participants fell in the 45-64 years old category Age did not show significant differences in quit intentions across the various age groups, though there was a slight trend toward higher quit intentions among older age groups ( P = 0.143).

There was a slight trend for studies to score higher on the QAT over time in linear regression analysis; however, this was not significant ( p = 0.144).

While there was a slight trend for lower sperm signal with increasing age, this was not significant (p-value = 0.16 for HMW and p-value = 0.65 for SSD).

In terms of medication history, there was a slight trend toward absence of archaea in patients with exposure to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) (OR 0.52, p = .18; Table 1 ).

The Postoperative Healing Evaluation No significant change in body weight was seen in all groups within 4 weeks, but there was a slight trend toward weight loss in plaster cast group ( p = 0.2) (Figure 3 ).

Graft survival was greater for the GERD-ARS than noGERD patients (log-rank, p = 0.039), and a slight trend toward higher survival was also observed as compared to GERD-noARS patients, but without significant difference (log-rank, p = 0.216).

There was a slight trend toward a higher percentage of death in the RB2550, but it was not statistically significant ( P = 0.22, n = 6) (Supporting Information Figure 2C ).

Age was not shown to be negatively associated with adherence to the system; in fact, a slight trend towards positive correlation was observed at 1-month post-enrolment ( r = 0.3312, P = 0.23).

Although there was a slight trend toward improved survival in patients with triple positive cells, this difference was not statistically significant (p=0.308).

However, Gpr88 showed a slight trend toward downregulation, discordant with our results in RNA-seq, but did not achieve statistical significance (relative FC: 0.901, p = 0.31).

While there was a slight trend favoring nurse-led care at 12 weeks post-discharge, the effect was not statistically significant (SMD = 0.23; 95%CI:−0.23,0.70; p = 0.33).

Regarding OS data after 2L line, we saw only a slight trend in favour of the Neo-RAS wt patients treated with anti-EGFR (33.6 mo vs 32.4 mo, P = 0.385), statistically limited due to sample size.

Additionally, although not significant, there was a slight trend for improved OS and PFS among patients with neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratios greater than five (OS p = 0.42, PFS p = 0.25) and above‐median neutrophil counts (OS p = 0.24, PFS p = 0.18).

A slight trend in lower circulating EVs in the DOAC arm was observed in both the small and large EVs; however, significance was not reached (Figure 2A : small EVs; p = 0.4577, Figure 2C : large EVs; p = 0.4574).

When using the median (120.61 pg/ml) to divide patients in the Aachen ICI cohort , only a slight trend towards a longer PFS could be shown in patients with values below the median ( p = 0.472, Supp.Fig. 6A), so that we calculated an absolute and relative ideal cut-off (ICO) to separate patients according to PFS (cut-off sCD27:63.98 pg/ml or 2.25 × median of controls).

We found a slight trend for higher tail-generated compensatory momentum on narrow ridges (ANOVA, P <0.5; Fig. 2E,F ; Table 2 ) during the early phase of the response, whereas no effects were seen in momentum generated by body rotation.

At 16 weeks, a slight trend (not statistically significant) towards increased ThT fluorescence was observed in BBN-treated mice compared to their control counterparts (Fig. 6 a, p = 0.5563).

There was a slight trend for strength improvements during the baseline phase (session coefficient=0.63, P =.57), amplified during the intervention phase (interaction=1.25, P =.25).

In contrast, female mice showed only a slight trend towards increasing mortality in the summer vs the other seasons ( Figure 4D ) and this difference was not statistically significant (HR female =1.31, p=0.614).

Overall results indicated a slight trend towards increased IL-6 concentrations overall, however, no time points were statistically significant ( p = 0.729, 0.603, 0.611 and 0.396 for 0, 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively), resulting in acceptance of the null hypothesis.

This suggests a slight trend favoring surgical management, but the difference was not statistically significant ( p = 0.766).

Blood glucose (Z = −1.16, p = 0.25), SOD (Z = −1.28, p = 0.21), and IBIL (Z = −0.62, p = 0.54) in SCZ patients showed a slight trend to increase and TBIL (Z = 1.76, p = 0.78) and HCY (Z = 1.39, p = 0.16) showed a slight trend to decrease after 24 weeks of risperidone treatment, but the difference was not significant.
