Ferritin itself is an inflammatory marker, and a previous study shows that in patients with AIHA, a highly significant difference is present in the ferritin levels among patients with hemolysis compared to those in remission [ 17 ].

The preservation of exocrine function was borderline significant when compared to the distal pancreatectomy [ 11 ]. 2.

In this data set, each quartile had similar rates of ultrasounds performed, but there was a clear trend toward higher rates of POCUS workflow completion among the providers who saw more patients overall during the study period.

The rate of prevalence showed a decreasing trend in subjects above 50 years.

Studies also revealed an increasing trend of TCM development during the COVID-19 pandemic in non-covid or unexposed patients due to psychological stress or financial constraint [ 5 ].

This observation was similar to other studies which showed an increasing trend in the total number of elders undergoing a renal biopsy, for the obvious reason of increased life expectancy worldwide [ 8 ].

A two-sided p-value of 0.05 or less was considered statistically significant and a p-value of 0.005 or less was considered statistically highly significant.

Moreover, tivozanib did not show any survival advantage in the TIVO-3 trial, while it showed a trend toward inferior OS in the TIVO-1 trial.

In addition, according to the AWaRe classification proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO), a proportion of Access group antimicrobials is on an increasing trend (18.1%, as of 2019), while that of Watch group antimicrobials has decreased to 80.1%, suggesting that the antimicrobial use is gradually being optimized in Japan [ 14 ].

There is an increasing trend in the incidence of SEP in the past few decades.

With the advent of COVID-19, there has been an increasing trend for diabetes and its complications.

Literature review There has been an increasing trend for the utilization of digital learning and the flipped classroom model in medical and postgraduate medical education [ 1 , 2 , 5 , 6 ].

We recommend further investigations in a multicenter study with a larger sample size to explore the different variables that were not statistically significant but trending toward significance.

Although the multifactorial component of this program was marginally significant, this study demonstrated the feasibility of at-home initiatives for rural populations to promote aging-in-place successfully [ 27 ].

Similarly, high maternal age (>35 years), high parity (>5), and previous history of GDM may increase the risk of GDM (OR = 4.30 [1.867-9.902]), (OR = 2.44 [1.006-5.942]), and (OR = 20.1 [7.15-56.6]), although it still remains highly significant.

Extra-intestinal effects of gastric stimulation parameters include alterations in systemic hormonal and autonomic neural activity, as well as modification of afferent nerve pathways projecting to the central nervous system, which might be significant mechanisms of action [ 11 ].

However, the relation was not entirely significant.

A highly significant positive correlation was found between PAID and DDS scores.

On univariate analysis (Table 2 ), the male sex (p=0.03) was significantly associated with recurrence, and anticoagulation (p=0.09) showed some trend toward significance yet not statistically significant.

On multivariate analysis, anticoagulation (p=0.077) showed only a trend toward significance, and no statistically significant association was found.

Subsequent blood gas analyses showed a trend toward mild metabolic acidosis with respiratory compensation, normal capillary pH, low bicarbonate level of 17.8 mmol/L (reference: 25 to 32 mmol/L), and base excess of negative 6.8 mmol/L (reference: +2.0 to -2.0 mmol/L) on day 5 after testing for SARS-CoV-2, which improved on the following days.

The association of bone alignment with hypoesthesia or paresthesia revealed a highly significant p-value (0.002) using the Chi-square test.

A decreasing trend in the odds ratio was seen with increasing age, indicating younger children are more prone to severe injury as compared to older ones.

Children have the highest seropositivity (94.44%) and from young adults, to the elderly, the proportion of positivity among cases shows an increasing trend.
