“a statistical trend”

In support of this notion, in rodents, chronic and repeated stress results in increased LC norepinephrine ( Fan et al., 2014 ), and one LC-MRI study in humans report a statistical trend towards increased LC contrast in individuals with anxiety compared to healthy controls ( Morris et al., 2020 ).

An alpha of ≤ 0.05 was considered significant while an alpha of > 0.05 to ≤ 0.10 was considered a statistical trend.

A two-sided p value < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant, a p value < 0.1 as a statistical trend.

In the univariate Cox regression analysis, while SMIdiff showed a statistical trend, RT intention, lymph node involvement, metastasis status, and TNM stage variables were observed to be dependent variables statistically significantly affecting survival (p values: 0.076, 0.019, 0.023, 0.01, 0.028, respectively) (Table 2 ).

A p ≤ 0.05 was accepted as statistically significant, and p -values between 0.05 and 0.10 were considered to represent a statistical trend.

p -values of <0.05 were considered statistically significant, while p -values of <0.10 were considered as a statistical trend considering the size of the sample.

Another study showed a statistical trend, even though not significant, toward increased expression of NF-κB in monocytes of patients with schizophrenia 51 .

Emerging evidence suggests that dexamphetamine may be effective in reducing cocaine use among heroin-maintained individuals [ 10 ] and a statistical trend in improving sustained cocaine abstinence has been observed in trials of dexamphetamine, modafanil and bupropion [ 11 , 12 ].

There was however a statistical trend for the OBE group to be more likely to endorse ‘eating alone’ than those in the SBE.

The Effect of Lesion Side No significant differences were found in reaction times, error rates or electrophysiological signal between HE-L and HE-R patients, with only a statistical trend for a GROUP by PREPARATION interaction over the non-lesioned hemisphere suggesting any difference between the groups.

Statistically significant differences were noted when p < 0.05, and 0.05 ≤ p ≤ 0.10 was considered a statistical trend. 3.

However, a statistical trend was observed with a faster reaction time in the second session (a difference of 7 ms).

Associations between sleep apnoea and daytime arterial P aO 2 were weaker; only AHI all night and AHI-non-REM showed a statistical trend for a negative association ( table 4 ).

However, this hypothesis is merely based on a statistical trend observed in wells with the cells incubated with BPL inactivated virus.

A comparison of our results for groups II-p (ASC-US) and II-g (AGC endocervical NOS) shows a statistical trend, but no significance with regard to CIN 2+.

( 2020 ) reported a statistical trend that the desire for intercourse with a partner was particularly strong in gynephilic TW (as was our sample on average) before undergoing sex reassignment surgery and, to a lesser extent, before GHT.

Discussion Our data show a statistical trend supporting earlier findings for an association of PCSK6 with handedness.

In agreement with the concept that the archaeal/bacterial C5 pathway of δALA biosynthesis is not conserved in mammals because an ortholog of the glutamyl-tRNA reductase HemA does not exist, there was only a statistical trend for a 20% increase for the GltX ortholog EARS2, a mitochondrial glutamyl-tRNA synthase, in the CLPP-null mouse brain (see Table S3 in [ 47 ]).

No significant relationship emerged between β-catenin or AQP1 expression and other clinico-pathological variables; only a statistical trend has been observed for the patient’s age.

As a result, some differences in the biomechanical performance between the groups could be substantiated only as a statistical trend.

Similarly, putative ON centre‐like responses of RGCs were found in both conditions, revealing a firing rate increase after WLP and showing a statistical trend in % firing rate change in the presence of iMG, with a slight increase in the number of responding RGCs in the retinal organoids with iMG (10.5% in RO + iMG and 7.5% in RO) (Figure 4A , p = 0.065).

The reduction in heart rate during exercise was associated with a significant increase in time to 1-mm ST-segment depression during ETT in a dose-dependent manner, and there was a statistical trend to improvement in time to limiting angina after just 2 weeks.

Again, no significant correlation was found between the subdomains of the HUI3 and the FG, but a statistical trend was found between the FG and the subdomain “hearing”.

39%; p = 0.045; OR = 1.196, 95% CI = 1.004–1.425), but showed a statistical trend when a 10e6 permutation test was applied (p perm = 0.053) (Table 2 ).

The number of cycles to reach 5 mm subsidence was higher in the augmenting screw group compared to the control group and showed a statistical trend but did not reach significance ( p = 0.068).
