“a statistical trend”

Interestingly, we found that, although VTA-shShank3 mice discriminated between non-familiar conspecific-paired and non-social compartment at the post-TEST, they showed only a statistical trend towards an increase in their preference for the non-familiar conspecific-paired compartment before and after conditioning.

Consequently, P < 0.0055 was considered significant and 0.05 > P > 0.0055 was a statistical trend.

Group differences controlling for symptom severity When including the SkPTBS subscale score as covariate, group differences in trauma onset and interpersonal trauma remained significant, while group differences in comorbidities remained as a statistical trend (Supplemental Table 1 ).

The Gross-motor skills also demonstrated a statistical trend towards receiving intervention as residential patient and duration (in hours) of intervention per day in the hospital.

Some measures demonstrated a statistical trend toward improvement that might reach significance with a larger sample.

There is also manual sampling and a statistical trend analysis to monitor the expected range of records and deviations are investigated.

In spite of these limitations, we still observed a statistical trend, which suggested that vertebroplasty was more effective than sham treatment.

Difference in empowerment scores neared significance and a statistical trend towards lower depression scores was seen, corresponding to moderate depression at baseline and less severe depression at 12 months.

Statistical significance was set at α<.05 and α between .05 and .10 was considered as a statistical trend level for all calculations.

NF membrane was first introduced in the late 1980s, and since then has gone through significant progressive transformation with time, which is shown in Figure 6 through a statistical trend in the number of publications per year for the last 20 years.

Contrary to our secondary hypothesis, participants who had received the verbal suggestion did not experience less pain than participants who only received the imagery instructions, although a statistical trend in this direction was observed and participants expected less pain.

Results of a linear regression suggested no sex × CSA interaction in predicting AH severity despite a statistical trend (Table S 3 ), suggesting a potentially similar effect of CSA on AH severity across males and females; however, CSA remained significantly positively associated with AH severity when controlling for sex, DSM diagnostic class, CPZ equivalents, and other maltreatment dimensions ( b = 0.77 [0.32], t [69]=2.41, p = 0.02; Table S 4 ), suggesting the relation between CSA and AH severity was not explained by patient diagnosis or co-occurrence of other maltreatment experiences.

Across behaviours, we found no significant sex effects, however it is interesting to note that the Genotype effect in the sociability index analysis was accompanied by a statistical trend for a Genotype x Sex interaction, and visual examination of the data confirms that the effect is mainly driven by a difference in male +/- animals.

P values smaller than 0.05 were considered statistically significant, values greater than or equal to 0.05, but smaller than 0.1 were interpreted as a statistical trend.

Despite the lack of a significant increase in corticospinal excitability, some lines of evidence suggest that motor learning could have occured in M1 during motor practice: i) motor practice led to a 24 % increase in corticospinal excitability whereas the dot observation and movement observation conditions both led to small decreases in M1 excitability; ii) there was a statistical trend towards significance for the interaction between the Time and Group variables, driven by the increase in MEP size from T1 to T2 in the motor practice group; iii) 8 out of 11 participants showed increased corticospinal excitability following motor practice; iv) behavioral data showed significantly increased movement speed after motor practice.

Further, a statistical trend toward a higher MEP SI 1 mV amplitude for the CHS approach was observed.

Although there were no significant associations between total dietary fiber intake, soluble fiber intake, insoluble fiber intake, and AET or total number of reflux episodes, there was a statistical trend observed for higher consumption of total, soluble and insoluble dietary fiber in the Inconclusive GERD group who reported greater consumption of whole grain–type breads and crackers (2.3 ± 0.5 vs 1.4 ± 0.4 servings/day).

We considered p values < 0.05 as statistically significant and p values < 0.10 as indicative of a statistical trend.

Results Increased cellular presence in soft-tissue specimens Haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining of soft-tissue specimens collected during surgery revealed a marked increase in cell count ( Figure 1 ): at the time of prosthesis removal, there was a statistical trend to elevated cell counts at 316.2 cells per mm 2 (SEM 49.81 (95% CI 212.0 to 420.5)) compared to the control group at 166.4 cells per mm 2 (SEM 30.22 (95% CI 102.9 to 229.9); p = 0.140, Kruskal-Wallis test).

19 These estimates were generated by using Spectrum-STI, a statistical trend-fitting model in the publicly available Spectrum suite of health policy planning tools 20 and country specific data from the global Spectrum-STI syphilis database (available from the corresponding author).

A statistical trend towards prolonged perineal pain in the adjustable male sling group could be observed.

Significance levels between >0.05 and <0.10 were evaluated as a statistical trend.

While there was a statistical trend for improvements in persons with PD following stress and decrements in HOAs, this may have been significant with a larger sample.

Our results showed a statistical trend for an increased McGurk illusion after six months of hearing aid use.

Although 6 specimens per group (18 shoulders in total) is a reasonable number and significant differences were observed, the groups might still be underpowered, which may also explain why the higher ultimate load to failure in the CH group compared with the LPCC group showed only a statistical trend but no actual significant difference.
