“showed a trend”

Results: Although FLOT showed a trend toward improved overall survival (OS) (median not reached vs. 18.9 months), this difference did not reach statistical significance.

Patients receiving biologic therapy showed a trend toward lower dysbiosis scores and improved microbial indices, although statistical significance was not reached.

With extended curing to 28 days ( Figure 14 b), all groups showed a trend of pore refinement, but the novel synchronous grouting material B2 exhibited the most pronounced optimization.

Although the suture-reinforced graft showed a trend toward lower kink radius (i.e., higher kink resistance), the circumferential independence and uniformity provided by the ring reinforcement are expected to offer practical advantages for structural stability.

As shown in Table 6 , mycelia could grow in all nine main substrate formulas, and the average growth rate showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing during the 30-day cultivation period.

Patients with a response of Grade 2b or higher (n = 18) showed a trend toward better 2 years PFS (86.6%, 95% CI 55.2–96.6%) compared to those with Grade 2a or lower (n = 39; 75.6%, 95% CI 58.2–86.6%), although the difference was not statistically significant ( p = 0.343) (Fig. 4 B).

End‐tidal O 2 partial pressure ( P ET O 2 ) at peak exercise showed a trend towards lower values in the long COVID patients.

We found that expression of ZFP36 showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing under the stimulation of TGF‐β1.

The estimated somatosensory cortical volume in the AG group (57.427 ± 1.22 mm3) showed a trend toward an increase compared to the IG group (37.632 ± 9.66 mm3) and the FG group (32.697 ± 9.47 mm3) (Fig. 6A ), with a calculated mean error coefficient of 2.1% (see supplementary materials).

Papillary subtype was associated with reduced odds of advanced stage, and chromophobe subtype showed a trend toward association with reduced odds.

Conclusion Although Chlamydia trachomatis infection was relatively uncommon, it showed a trend toward higher rates of intrapartum fever and very low birth weight (<2000 g) among women with preterm conditions.

The age-period-cohort model indicated that incidence and mortality risks increased with age, with a marked increase after 70 years of age; incidence risk showed a “wave-like” pattern of increase-decrease-increase over periods, while mortality risk showed a trend of decrease followed by increase; incidence risk fluctuated upward across birth cohorts, whereas mortality risk fluctuated downward.

By contrast, in the HLA-DR-strong group, the ICOS-high group showed a trend toward longer cancer-specific survival (CSS), although this trend did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.060).

Conclusion In this preliminary study, hysteroscopic cold knife dissection combined with PRP showed a trend toward regulating sex hormone levels, mitigating inflammatory responses, and reducing re-adhesion incidence in IUA patients, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic option.

In spring, exposure to extreme dry heat (>2 days) showed a trend toward increased vertigo risk.

In multivariable analysis, only histological subtype (HR 4.48, 95% CI 1.13-17.6, P = 0.03) remained significantly associated with all-cause mortality, whereas upregulation of HMGB1 and pT stage ≥ pT3 (HR, 0.30; 95% CI, 0.07-1.22; P = 0.09 and HR, 3.33; 95% CI, 0.84-13.3; P = 0.09, respectively) showed a trend toward association (Table 2 ).

Delay in RT of > 20.5 weeks (HR = 3.34, 95% CI: 0.89–12.4, p = 0.07) showed a trend toward poor EFS.

The oral semaglutide group showed a trend of greater reduction in HbA1c for patients aged ≥ 65 years at 6 months, although the difference did not reach statistical significance (≥65 years; −0.80 ± 0.15%; <65 years; −1.22 ± 0.26%; P = 0.18; Figure 4a ).

Both shunt types resulted in similar symptom improvements, while the P‐VPS group showed a trend toward longer hospital stays, potentially related to valve adjustment complexities.

Meanwhile, higher GA at FLS showed a trend towards increased odds of survival of at least one twin (OR, 1.247 (95% CI, 0.999–1.557)), and higher GA at birth was associated with higher odds of survival of at least one twin (OR, 2.093 (95% CI, 1.733–2.527)).

In our study using the 3-arm Y-maze, KO mice showed a trend toward reduced correct spontaneous alternations ( Fig. 3 ); however, this difference was not statistically significant.

In addition, the high NPS group showed a trend toward a lower body mass index, which was not statistically significant.

Similarly, no significant prognostic differences were observed in patients treated with taxane-based regimens; however, PKCζ high expression consistently showed a trend toward poorer outcomes.

Single gas permeation tests from ZIF-Zn-Co membranes showed a trend similar to that of the case of the ZIF-S-Zn membrane ( Figure g).

Histopathological changes were not present at the end of the recovery period, while clinical chemistry showed a trend to recovery after a 4‐week treatment‐free period.
