In Latin America and the Caribbean, colorectal cancer incidence has shown an increasing trend over recent decades [ 4 ].

CKD (OR 3.68, p = 0.052), infection (OR 4.38, p = 0.079), and type of treatment (OR 3.84, p = 0.104) showed a trend toward significance but did not reach statistical significance.

Results Automated segmentation results revealed significantly larger gray matter volumes in the right amygdala and left thalamus among obese individuals, with near-significant increases observed in the bilateral hippocampus and putamen.

Patients aged over 60 years showed a trend toward lower odds of infection (AOR = 0.46, 95% CI: 0.20-1.04), although this finding was not statistically significant after adjustment to a regression model (p = 0.062).

Specifically, seawater temperature declined with increasing distance from shore, whereas dissolved oxygen and turbidity showed an increasing trend.

Year-wise distribution demonstrated an increasing trend in MRCoNS proportion from 2021 (1892/6326, 17%) to 2025 (1453/6326, 23%), while MSCoNS proportions fluctuated over the years.

The findings from these studies show an overall trend in favor of honey, with three studies reporting statistically significant outcomes [ 30 , 32 , 33 ].

While R-TKA showed a trend toward greater functional improvement in joint-specific measures, it did not demonstrate statistical superiority over conventional methods in this cohort. knee arthroplasty koos-jr mcid proms robotic tka pmc-status-qastatus 0 pmc-status-live yes pmc-status-embargo no pmc-status-released yes pmc-pro

An increasing trend in caries prevalence was observed with advancing age, indicating a higher disease burden among older children (Table 3 ).

In India, prevalence rates show an increasing trend, yet research on younger children remains sparse.

In splenic injuries, more than half of the patients (53.4%) demonstrated a shock index >0.9, with a clear trend toward increasing shock index values in higher grades, particularly grades IV and V (Figure 1 ).

Although the difference was not statistically significant, the MPCPC group showed a trend toward fewer complications, as no significant complications were observed, whereas one eye in the CWCPC group developed phthisis bulbi and two eyes had severe pain and uveitis.

Results: This study revealed a numerical trend toward higher patient satisfaction with on-site consultations across both age groups, particularly among those aged 18-40, although the difference among patients aged >41 years was minimal; however, these differences were not statistically significant.

Discussion In this meta-analysis of six RCTs, perioperative ketamine or esketamine exposure during cesarean section was associated with modestly significant lower EPDS scores compared to control between POD 3 and 14.

Among the nine studies that were included, three showed a statistically significantly higher age for the Modic group [ 11 - 13 ], while the others showed a positive trend that did not reach individual significance.

Discussion The present study demonstrated statistically significant reductions in intraoperative blood loss and transfusion requirements, along with a positive trend toward fewer overall postoperative complications and wound infections.

There is an apparent trend of decreasing VAS with time evident in both groups.

A strong trend toward a higher total postoperative complication rate was observed in the laminectomy group (n=12, 24%) compared to the laminoplasty group (n=2, 4%), though this did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.062, Fisher's exact test).

Lonner and co-workers noted that polyaxial constructs were associated with better maintenance of thoracic kyphosis compared with monoaxial or hybrid constructs, which showed a trend toward kyphosis loss; this observation highlights that the effect of screw type may be parameter-specific (i.e., affecting rotation or sagittal contours more than coronal Cobb correction) [ 9 ].

Age showed a trend toward increased risk but did not reach statistical significance.

There was an increasing trend in the number of cases over time.

While the available literature demonstrates a clear trend toward improved accuracy, consistency, and efficiency with AI-driven systems, further large-scale, longitudinal clinical studies are imperative to validate their long-term reliability and generalizability in diverse dental environments.

Our results demonstrate a clear trend of increasing aesthetic improvement over time, as evidenced by the GAIS assessments at various postoperative intervals.

After all, despite its usefulness, closed reduction is linked with quite significant limitations.
