We note that these values are averaged and do not reflect interpatient variations, which may be significant for certain parameter configurations.

AML cases showed a trend of correlation of NCAM1 with fibrosis, but case numbers were too low for statistical analysis. 3.2.

A trend toward significance revealed higher local control (LC) rates in patients with a duration of symptoms lasting less than four months from the onset of the disease to the initial consultation (97.7% vs. 84.3%; p = 0.061).

Interestingly, our group of patients with no re-resection radiotherapy showed a trend towards a higher rate of LR.

The XELOXA trial comparing 5-FU to a combination of CAPOX showed a trend toward benefit from the addition of oxaliplatin in terms of DFS and OS in elderly patients, although this was diminished compared to younger patients and was not statistically significant [ 66 , 67 ].

Sixty-seven percent of cases are now diagnosed incidentally [ 4 ], resulting in a decreasing trend in tumor size and stage [ 5 ].

There was also a clear trend toward less positive findings in papillary and chromophobe RCC cases.

Over the past decade, there has been an increasing trend toward the use of DECT for the evaluation of renal lesions [ 17 , 22 , 23 , 24 ].

A further subpopulation analysis, including 70 patients (85%) without metastases at presentation, revealed that rWIR as a binary variable nearly approached significance, suggesting an association with EFS (HR: 2.3; 95% CI: 1.0–5.2) ( Table 3 ). rWIR as a continuous variable was significantly associated with EFS (HR: 0.7; 95% CI: 0.5–0.9).

In general, 40% of patients receiving curative chemoradiation failed to return to work after treatment, but patients randomized to IMPT were more able to keep on working and demonstrated a favorable trend toward higher productivity recovery levels.

In addition, a positive trend was reported in pain management in terms of VAS scores.

There is an increasing trend towards regulated, protocol-driven oncological fertility care programs [ 16 , 17 ].

Among these, the steepest dose–response was reported for meningioma, with an increasing trend in individuals exposed at younger ages [ 43 ], emphasizing the relevance of even small absolute differences in dose.

Specifically, the Hazard Ratios (HRs) for mean nuclei sizes indicate a clear trend: larger nuclei sizes are associated with a higher risk of adverse outcomes, highlighting the prognostic value of nuclear morphology in melanoma.

Multivariate analysis also showed a trend for a relationship between PS and liver function with OS.

pylori -positive group showed a trend toward a 4-month longer median immune-related overall survival (irOS).

No significant discrimination was evident for age (OR 0.93; 95%CI 0.83–1.03), genetic status (OR 0.06; 95%CI 0.06–6.87), or BMI (OR 0.18; 95%CI 0.01–1.16) between groups although BMI > 30 showed a trend towards a negative impact on group differentiation, suggesting a BMI < 30 may be more commonly associated with benign status.

Although the results did not show statistical significance, there was a noticeable trend toward significance in the colon cancer cohort, which may have achieved significance had we been able to stratify this cohort according to tumor sidedness. 5.

GPAT4 is present in lipid droplets and may be significant in TAG synthesis in these organelles [ 29 ].

Most of the studies discussed above have not leveraged these recent advances, and therefore there may be significant potential to advance cervical cancer characterization by utilizing MRS.

Furthermore, the risk escalated with increasing percentages of in-field skin surface area, indicating a significant trend (P trend among exposed = 0.002).

In this regard, they assessed a significant proportion of patients reporting high levels of anxiety, depression, and psychological distress, among females and both among patients and partners, too, by assigning to the female sex a negative trend in psychological conditions among cancer patients.

Notably, PCI was found to significantly improve OS and showed a trend towards improved PFS.

A p value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant, whereas p values ≥ 0.05 and <0.1 indicated a statistical trend. 3.

A decreasing trend in latency period was observed for subsequent primary cancers, with the median interval period between diagnoses being 4.1 years for first to second primary cancers, 2.1 years for second to third ( p = 0.000), and 1.6 years for third to fourth ( p = 0.963) ( Table 2 ).
