“a clear trend”

In the experienced group, a clear trend toward a reduction in anastomotic complications (21.4% vs 5%; p = 0.06) and severe complications (14.3% vs 6.25%; p = 0.27) was observed, although the differences were not significant.

In our results, the decrease in the prevalence of insufficient PA was close to significance ( p = 0.06), but a clear trend was observed across all countries.

We found a clear trend between expression in brain and spinal cord in MS patients (p = 0.06, Additional file 1 : Figure S7).

For the T2 prepared gradient echo technique, a significant (p < 0.05) increase in SNR for the vessel wall and lumen, and a clear trend (p < 0.06) to improved wall-lumen CNR were observed (see Table 2 ).

The combined Noggin and Sucralfate groups versus the non-treated operated rats showed a clear trend towards less inflammation with inflammation scores of 9.5 (3–13) versus 15 (11–20), P = 0.06.

While fresh EVs were used as a positive control and showed a clear trend toward increased organoid formation, the differences did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.06), likely due to the variability inherent in primary cell cultures.

At the 22-h time point, a clear trend toward lower expression in the BpV-treated samples compared to control was also observed (0.24 ± 0.05 vs. 1.1 ± 0.28; P = 0.06).

At this clinic visit, this clinically relevant correction had been maintained in a significantly larger proportion of NLFs treated with JUP, as documented by the physicians (90% vs 65%; P < 0.0001), with a clear trend also evident based on the subjects’ independent scoring (83.8% vs 72.5%; P = 0.06).

Despite a clear trend in the univariable analysis, a high TMTV was not a statistically significant prognostic factor for OS in the CIT group (HR 2.2, 95%CI 1.0–4.8, p = 0.06).

In unadjusted analysis, there was a clear trend for the interaction effect (HR: 3.52; 95% CI: 0.92–13.52; p = 0.06).

In contrast, a clear trend was found ( p = 0.06) regarding the differences in the maximum Z -score values, that followed the same pattern of the BBR cost function values: a consistent increase from the uncorrected to the TOPUP-corrected fMRI data, and a further increase when performing the GRE correction.

Results Within-subjects analyses Recognition accuracy We observed a clear trend toward a main effect of target category which just missed the adopted significance level [ F (1, 17) = 4.11, p = 0.06, Partial Eta Squared ( p η 2 ) = 0.19].

A clear trend (p = 0.06) to an increase in absolute numbers of NK-T cells (CD3+CD16+CD56+) was observed after cycle 1 compared to baseline in Group A ( Fig 4A ) and after adding of gemcitabine, the numbers of NKT cells was reduced (p<0.05).

Coefficients and odds ratio values indicated that an unpleasant sensation after use of cosmetics, wind exposure, and sun exposure were, in decreasing order, the main predictors of having LAST positivity; p values were significant in the first two cases and showed a clear trend toward statistical significance in the other one ( p =0.06).

While the association with violence in the pairwise comparison between the Met homozygous and Val homozygous groups did not reach our threshold of statistical significance, a clear trend was identified in the anticipated direction (DOR = 1.63; 95% CI = 0.94–2.82; z = 1.55, p = 0.06).

Our results revealed that cardiac expression of CypD at ZG 0 showed a clear trend towards higher level relative to that at ZG 4 (1.44 ± 0.27 during wake vs. 0.84 ± 0.15 during sleep, p = 0.06; n = 9 and 10 animals; respectively, Fig. 3 B), providing evidence for enhanced sensitivity of opening of mPTP to Ca 2+ during wake period.

Remarkably, a clear trend of modulation by ESR1 was observed ( = 0.10, 0.17, and 0.12; P = 0.06, 0.008, and 0.03; Supplementary Table S7 ).

The analysis showed a clear trend towards increased protein levels GRP78 in neurons of the SNpc; the content of GRP78 increased 1.4 times ( p = 0.06) 3 h after its administration compared with the control ( Figure S4 ).

While the dopaminergic neuron density remained on a similar level in transgenic α-SYN mice of both ages ( p > 0.05), a clear trend towards an increase in these neurons was apparent in wild-type mice from 6 to 12 months ( p = 0.06), consistent with previous reports 15 .

Moreover, non-survivors also showed a clear trend toward reduced monocyte stimulability as determined by F7 ( p = 0.06).

Although we did not find significant changes in ATAD3 phosphorylation or levels in the present LC–MS/MS analysis, there was a clear trend for a decrease in protein levels in NEK10 KO samples (192/178/203 for NEK10 KO samples and 205/228/245 for Parental cells, p = 0.06; Supplemental Table 1).

There was a clear trend for worse survival even in patients age 25–40 years in the ZA group ( p =0.06, Figure 4 ).

A comparison of groups 2 and 3 showed a clear trend of normalization of gastric pH in correlation with length of follow up ( P = 0.0608).

Results GSPE supplementation increased the circulating levels of NEFAs and total adiponectin in dams GSPE dams showed decreased liver weight (p = 0.032, Student’s t test) and a clear trend toward lower body weight gain compared with the VEH animals (p = 0.061, Student’s t test), which could be attributed to a decreased daily energy intake (p = 0.013, Student’s t test) (Table 2 ).

A clear trend (p = 0.061) toward higher arrhythmia scores was also observed in older males than in females of the same age (Fig. 2 g).
