“a statistical trend”

Worse cartilage scores at the MFC and a statistical trend for increased WORMS total scores were found in subjects with ACL reconstruction, independent of muscle characteristics.

Two other factors, namely concomitant venous trauma and classification of ischemia severity showed a statistical trend to correlate with amputation, yet did not reach statistical significance at p values of 0.0591 and 0.0638, respectively.

For the main analysis of treatment effects, a two-tailed Student’s T-test was used with probability thresholds established as follows: p < 0.05 (95% confidence interval) for statistical significance and 0.05 < p < 0.10 considered suggestive of a statistical trend.

Given that a statistical trend analysis was not conducted, the dose–response patterns identified in this study should be interpreted within the framework of a biphasic antioxidant–pro-oxidant effect rather than as a confirmed linear trend.

Tobacco smoking was also a potential factor that may increase the risk of late fibrosis by 60% but with only a statistical trend.

Regarding the mean operating time, there was a statistical trend favoring the NPS2 group, but not significant (21.7±17.2 [SPS] vs. 17.9±18.7 [NPS2] min; p=0.090).

Regarding the frequency results for class II alleles in the RV group, the frequency of DRB1*1402 (8.7%) was significantly different, and a statistical trend towards a difference in DRB1*0101 (30.4%) was observed compared with the other groups.

Regarding the SNPs for KCNJ11, rs5219_AA was associated with the presence of normal coronary arteries, as a protective independent factor for microvascular dysfunction with a statistical trend [ 11 ].

CTnT significantly increased 4 hours after exercise; a statistical trend was evident for POST +1.

Patients’ age demonstrated a statistical trend but did not reach the level of significance (OR 0.97 (95% CI 0.93–1.00); p = 0.08).

Furthermore, a statistical trend can be deduced from the droplet sizes of the two emulsions.

A statistical trend was considered for p -values below 0.1. 3.

No statistically significant difference was found in patients with KL score of 2, though there was a statistical trend to increased extrusion.

In this context, what was the criterion to classify a given result as a trend? This information should be included in the manuscript, because a p = 0.08 was considered a trend (lines 601 to 604), whereas a p = 0.09 was not (lines 583 to 586).” << We thank the reviewer for this question and the opportunity to address how we define a statistical trend.

Effect of time since the onset of IE The time since the onset of IE was moderately-positively correlated to volume of the LV, but this finding was only a statistical trend.

Results Father relationship type showed a statistical trend toward decelerated aging (Horvath, β=3.5, 95%CI ‐0.02 to 7.0).

Social novelty test KOs and WTs did not differ significantly in time spent in the stranger 1 chamber ( t (18) = 1.37, p = .188), center chamber ( t (18) = 1.40, p = .183), or stranger 2 chamber ( t (18) = 1.88, p = .079, Figure 4b ), but a statistical trend toward KOs spending less time in the stranger 2 chamber was observed.

Moderation by variability in sleep onset Variability in sleep onset moderated associations between morningness – eveningness and externalizing behavior, internalizing symptoms, positive affect, and physical health at the level of a statistical trend or higher ( Table 3 ).

P values of <0.05 were taken as being statistically significant, while 0.05< P <0.1 were considered as showing a statistical trend.

A p value of 0.05 was used to make all statistical determination and any p value between p = 0.051–0.10 was considered a statistical trend.

However, there was a statistical trend favouring those patients who were evaluated more than 1 year postoperatively.

In B6 susceptible mice, we observed a statistical trend for overrepresentation of node of Ranvier genes among the downregulated genes.

The unadjusted plant age finding was not statistically significant ( P = .07) but showed a statistical trend and may have been of clinical importance.

Another finding of this study is a statistical trend which indicated different changes in heart rate following completion of Tai Chi and walking.

The analysis of signal-detection parameters showed that the irrelevant location changes strongly affected response bias whereas there was merely a statistical trend for reduced sensitivity.
