“showed a trend”

On the other hand, children with GPB IE showed a trend towards higher rate of residual valve regurgitation (29.4% vs 0.0%).

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.

In the present study, restricted cubic spline regression showed that the OR of albuminuria showed a trend of decreasing followed by a slight increase with increasing dietary OBS, but overall the risk of albuminuria was still significantly lower in the higher dietary OBS group compared with the lower dietary OBS group, which may be related to the threshold effect of some antioxidants and interactions between antioxidants ( 41 ), beyond which antioxidants may exhibit pro-oxidant or depleting antioxidant properties.

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.

Treatment with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 showed a trend of PD-L1 protein increase in growing cells but did not affect PD-L1 levels in senescent cells, further indicating a reduced proteasomal degradation of PD-L1 in senescent cells (Fig. 3k ).

The quantification only showed a trend to a reduced lipid accumulation, when lanifibranor was added to the culture (Figure 3F ).

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).

4 Discussion While our study could not detect a statistically significant difference in learning when using ChatGPT, it showed a trend towards a greater increase in test scores and a greater decrease in time spent to answer the knowledge test.

L-Theanine was the most abundant non-protein amino acid in purple-colored leaf tea, and its content showed a trend of firstly increasing and then decreasing during the anaerobic treatment, which is consistent with the previous study ( Dai et al., 2020 ).

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.

There were some findings that showed a trend but did not meet statistical significance so they were not discussed here.

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.

Changes in environmental suitability for the species in the CEU related to the department of Nariño showed a trend consistent with what was observed for the entire Colombian Pacific ( Figure S7 ).

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.

4.9 months; HR = 0.63; 95%CI, 0.52–0.76; p < 0.0001), and OS also showed a trend towards benefit (HR = 0.84) [ 87 ].

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.

Simultaneously, the crystallization temperature, melting temperature, and crystallization rate of the polymer all showed a trend of decreasing first and then increasing, which was due to the combined effects of the increase in the content of 6T chain segments on the molecular-chain structure and crystal structure of the polymer.

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.
