Regarding the morbidity site, intestinal toxicity was present in 38% of the patients, while 46% of the 37 patients presented irritable bowel as comorbidity; although in the multivariate analysis, no statistical significance was observed between the association of the irritable bowel and chronic toxicity, it showed a trend.

In contrast, the combined group showed a trend of reduced bone marrow suppression, which may be related to elemene's role in enhancing the immune function of the body.

Supplementation of BMP-2 through saline injections into the bone tunnel showed a trend towards reduced cross sectional area.

Similarly, sensory-evoked gamma power increased with pre-stimulus auditory cortical desynchronization and showed a trend to saturate at intermediate levels.

Patients treated with a shorter prosthesis-free interval showed a trend towards lower reinfection rate (6%) compared with patients with a longer one (14%).

In detail, at one-month post vitrectomy, VLD and VT significantly changed in parafoveal region ( p = 0.043; p = 0.045), while PD and VDI showed a trend of increase in both parafoveal and perifoveal region.

Also, male IBD patients showed a trend toward lower BMD [ 12 ].

In three remaining ROIs (the entorhinal cortex, the gray matter in the frontal lobe, and the caudate nucleus), the APTw values in the aMCI group showed a trend toward higher levels, but the increases were not statistically significant, compared to the normal control group ( P > 0.05).

The intervention also showed a trend towards reducing HIV or HSV-2 prevalence among males with a high-level exposure to the intervention.

However, fusion with HIVΔNef of MDMs exposed to exNef showed a trend of being reduced by AIBP, although the difference did not reach significance ( P = 0.0874).

Myofiber size changes in hybrid fibers (expressing both MyHC-I and II simultaneously) showed a trend only ( Figure 1C and Supplementary Table S1 ).

As an aside, Ppo expression showed a trend towards downregulation in P. larvae -infected groups during the in vitro larval infection assays.
