Excerpts

Factors with a p -value < 0.3 were chosen to identify independent predictors of higher NIHSS scores that were approaching significance and, theoretically, more likely to significantly contribute to the model.

However, patients who had a prolonged sick leave showed a trend to higher nipple complications compared to the control group ( Table 3 ).

NLR plays a highly significant role in different postoperative manifestations in orthopedic and non-orthopedic surgeries that were not demonstrated in this specific study as presented in recent studies by Melinte R. et al. and Pasqui E. et al., respectively [ 39 , 40 ].

In fact, a significant trend towards an increase of RON was observed in ACR TI-RADS when going from the lower- to the higher-risk categories, in line with what was previously described in the current literature, and, in particular, about the initial ACR TI-RADS white paper [ 23 ].

Conclusions In conclusion, we found a clear trend showing higher risk of secondary loss of reduction in temporary treatment with a bivalved plaster cast compared with interval external fixation for unimalleolar ankle fracture dislocations.

Moreover, for the same subgroup of older individuals, a significant correlation of rMSSD with thickness of the pars orbitalis in the rH was also found, while only a trend towards significance was observed between the rostral ACC in the rH and rMSSD in the younger subgroup.

The correlation between neural BOLD and HRV was significant for the RH only during the first resting period and showed a trend for the LH during the movement period.

Alopecia-specific collocated behavioral health (CLBH) treatment showed a trend for psychosocial improvement in areas such as appearance shame, activity avoidance, negative emotions, and coping.

However, in our study there was a marginally significant association between increasing BMI and the likelihood of detecting OSA among stroke patients with SDB ( Table 4 ).

Female predominance in UCH was reported previously in some articles [ 1 , 10 ] showing a clear trend.

The incidence is approximately 0.2–0.5 per million people in the Western world, with an increasing trend, likely due to increased UV exposure [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ].

Using the two-tailed test, a p −Value of 0.05 to 0.01 was defined as statistically significant, a p −Value of 0.01 to 0.001 was defined as statistically very significant, and a p −Value < 0.001 was defined as statistically extremely significant.

Survival rates are 82% 12 months after transplantation and 70% after 5 years (conditional on survival to 1 year) with an increasing trend over the last decades [ 46 ].

However, the effect of 25(OH)D on serum triglycerides was marginally non-significant for females (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.69–1.08), but remained significant for HDL-C [ 29 ].

Visualization Comparison of Linear and Nonlinear Processing Modes In the spectral map output of systematic clustering, different color blocks were mixed and arranged, indicating that the ovarian cancer group and each control group were scattered on different branches of the spectrum, and the differentiation effect was not satisfactory ( Figure 2 A), whereas in the three-dimensional space based on t-SNE downscaling, there was a clear trend of inter-group separation and intra-group aggregation between the ovarian group and each control subgroup sample.

Furthermore, it should be noted that conduct problems showed trajectories with decreasing scores over time as the children age, while the high trajectory of emotional problems shows an increasing trend.

The red starburst pattern was near statistical significance for PAK.

Evaluation of the second stage of reconstruction showed a trend towards a higher rating of the overall appearance compared to the first stage of reconstruction for both devices, but this was not found to be significant ( p > 0.9999 in Mentor CPX ® 4 breasts and p = 0.7813 in SmoothSilk ® breasts).

Ultrasound evaluation revealed significantly reduced capsules around SmoothSilk ® expanders and a highly significant occurrence of seroma formation in the upper pole of the CPX ® expander.

Participants showed a trend for improved functional mobility when walking with the recommended gait aid at week 6 compared with week 1.

Fourth, we did not investigate psychiatric symptoms, which might be significant contributors to sleep problems in the context of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

After matching, only a statistical trend was observed regarding shorter ICU stays in the MICLAT-S group.

Our sensitivity analyses indicated robust associations across various settings (females only, males only, 2020 only, 2021 only, non-severe outcomes, severe outcomes) where most associations remained nominally significant in each sub-analyses or had overlapping confidence intervals in their sensitivity analyses.

Univariate logistic regression analysis suggested that the variables hemoglobin, type of procedure, and POSSUM physiological score might be significant predictive factors for the achievement of TO ( Table 5 ).

The level of significance was set at p < 0.05, while p -values between 0.05 and 0.10 were considered to indicate a statistical trend. 3.
