“a statistical trend”

[ 30 ] also showed a statistical trend for higher baseline depressive symptoms to predict smaller increases in CRF following 12-week-long, planned, structured, and repetitive exercise interventions.

Although these subgroups differed in cohort size, there was a statistical trend for a decrease in CSA over time in all three subgroups (Swiss European, non-Swiss European and non-European) at both levels examined between subjects born in the 1930s–1940s and those born in the 1980s–1990s for example.

While a statistical trend was noted between assessments of ROC curves for MRPP and APMHR, overall this failed to reach significance (z = 1.8, p = 0.072; Fig. 2 ).

In turn, p values between 0.05 and 0.1 were considered to indicate a statistical trend.

Our results suggest a pattern of right ventricular alterations which is similar to left ventricular ones, with an almost significant reduction in end-diastolic volume and a statistical trend towards a lower stroke volume.

In Study 1, when compared to placebo + exercise, LM combined with three sets of low-intensity resistance exercise had no significant effects on the outcome measures, although a statistical trend was found favoring LM + exercise group on increased anterior thigh muscle thickness.

Although the change in relative volume of the olfactory bulb was the only statistically significant outcome, a statistical trend for a change in volume of several brain regions warrants investigation.

There was also a statistical trend associating the levels of oxidation and packaging colour.

Albumin level showed a statistical trend toward being lower in the NOAF group.

There was a statistical trend for a reduction of self-reported BPD symptoms after 10 weeks of CBASP [BSL-23: t ( 49 ) = 1.96, p FDR = 0.10, d = −0.31].

Across DSQ subgroups there are statistically significant differences in FIS and COMPASS 31 scores, and there was a statistical trend for a monotonic increase of self-reported cognitive impairment with increased DSQ category.

Post-hoc tests indicated that individuals with somatic symptom disorder ( p = 0.050) and with depressive disorders ( p = 0.017) had a less pronounced AAR than healthy controls (the former result was only a statistical trend).

Both univariate and multivariate analyses showed a statistical trend of association between disease-specific survival duration and M stage.

Significance was defined as P < 0.05, while a probability level of 0.05 ≤ P < 0.10 was considered as a statistical trend.

Differences were considered statistically significant at P < 0.05, and 0.05 ≤ p < 0.10 was interpreted as a statistical trend where appropriate.

In addition, we found a reduction in subjective time in bed (TIB) and a statistical trend towards a reduction in subjective total sleep time (TST); the Sleep Score (combined value including sleep duration, sleep regularity and subjective sleep quality, scores between 1 and 10, while higher scores represent more favourable values), however, did not change significantly (see Table 2 for descriptive values and statistics).

For the semantic fluency task, the number of vascular burden factors showed no significant prediction (p > .1), while hypertension (β = -.053, p = .084) showed a statistical trend towards a prediction of decreased left IFJ hemodynamic response amplitudes.

Mean source wave form resting-state data revealed only a statistical trend for an age-related decrease in slow wave activity, which was, however, in line with data reported by Fehr [ 20 ], who also reported a decrease in delta source activity (Minimum-Norm, L2) but also reported an increase in higher-frequency bands.

Plasma levels of LCN2 and MMP-7 were significantly higher in the validation ICU group compared with the validation home group, whereas a statistical trend was observed for HGF ( Supplemental Figure 4A ).

Finally, there was a statistical trend for a group difference on the resolvable trials that was reminiscent of the significant differences we had observed before with a spatial probe and abstract stimuli (letters in locations, Experiment 2 in Harkin and Kessler, 2011 ).

The increase of CYTOR expression in SK-BR-3 cells followed a statistical trend.

Statistically significant changes in malic and fumaric acids levels in the sprouts pretreated with PGPs and/or BCAs were noted, while for the other analyzed acids (oxalic, citric, succinic) the observed changes can only be described in terms of a statistical trend.

Additionally, no statistically significant differences were found for displacement at maximum force (p = 0.09) and strain at maximum stress (p = 0.10) ( Supplementary Figure 4 ), although a statistical trend towards increases in these parameters with injury (with and without IBU) may contribute to the significant changes in stiffness and elastic modulus, respectively.

Nevertheless, a statistical trend towards the oxaliplatin/5-FU group was noticed (Figure 2 ; median survival 30 mo for MMC vs not reached for oxaliplatin/5-FU).

Indeed, increased activation of these structures was correlated with walking speed ( Luft et al., 2008 , Enzinger et al., 2009 ) and endurance ( Enzinger et al., 2009 ) although it was only a statistical trend with respect to the thalamus. 4.6 Upper limb rehabilitation Functional MRI changes in response to upper limb rehabilitation are very variable, ranging from an increased activation of ipsilesional sensorimotor areas ( Whitall et al., 2011 , Ramos-Murguialday et al., 2013 , Jang et al., 2005 , Sun et
