“a clear trend”

MR): No significant differences were observed in any brain region ( p > 0.05), but there was a clear trend toward enhanced LMC activation (M = 1.177 ± 2.728, t = 1.613, p = 0.131).

Although there was a clear trend towards fewer complications in the UBE group, the difference in total incidence between the 2 groups did not reach statistical significance ( P =0.14).

While there was a clear trend towards an increase in both basal (mean difference=2.59, P =0.14) and 30-minute cortisol values (mean difference=1.94, P =0.32), these values did not reach statistical significance.

Although not statistically significant, the data shows a clear trend ( p = .14).

The relationship between DFS and PD-L1 expression was noted to have a clear trend of poor DFS in higher PD-L1-staining tumor tissues ( p = 0.14) ( Fig. 1 C).

Even though we could again see a clear trend toward poorer survival of PAI-1-high CRC patients (hazard ratio [HR] and 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.486 [0.87–2.54], p = 0.14; in 2017: p = 0.255 [ 20 ]), PAI-1 as well as uPA protein measurements via ELISA failed to significantly stratify CRC patients (for uPA: HR [95% CI]: 1.22 [0.72–2.069], p = 0.46).

However, there was a clear trend towards a decreased disease-free survival of A-carriers in unselected (p = 0.14) and, more pronounced, in ER negative patients (p = 0.1; Fig. 2B, E ).

While there was no significant difference between induction treatment dose intensity for cisplatin and pemetrexed ( Table 4 ), there were seven patients in B and 16 in A who received pemetrexed maintenance, demonstrating a clear trend for a higher usage of pemetrexed maintenance in arm A (X 2 -test, p = 0.14).

Osterix levels showed a clear trend to increase only in Ad-MSCS differentiated on PRP cryogels (1.59-fold, p = 0.144).

There is a clear trend toward more metacognitive ability over time for both the trained [ F (5,40) = 1.742; p = 0.147] and untrained (generalization) orientation [ F (2,16) = 7.416; p = 0.005].

Although a clear trend is apparent in DSS rates, non-significant results were obtained with p16 positive ( p = 0.15) and negative ( p = 0.15) patients stratified by EGFR expression (Fig. 3 ).

For the expression of ER-alpha, a significant result was also observed that the TFP group in reference samples was greater than the TFN group with a clear trend (one-sided Wilcoxon rank-sum, ESR1|ER-alpha, p = 0.15; ESR1|ER-alpha_pS118, p = 0.05, Fig. 3 C).

No significant time dependencies and interactions could be found; however, a clear trend ( P < 0.15) especially in the indices scale 2 and scale 20, pW232, and mean_huegel could be observed.

Supplementation with 3–12 g of acutely and chronically ingested Cit showed a clear trend of increased lactate, although the overall effect was only small ( p = 0.16).

Significant astigmatism (≤ −0.75 D) does not show a clear trend over time, with no significant association observed (χ 2 statistic = 8.907, P = 0.167).

The frequency of studies providing the list of ant species since 1994 was around 80% on average, without showing a clear trend over time ( figure 2 a , red line, proportion binomial test: χ 2 = 0.9, p = 0.167).

In our cohort, no significant association was found between the median HRD score and BRCA mutational status (despite a clear trend towards higher HRD scores in BRCA 1/2 mutated tumors: respectively, 50.6 for patients with BRCA 1/2 mutation and 26.3 for patients with WT status, p -value = 0.17) in the whole cohort, or in each BC subtype (Fig. 1a ).

Of these, age (p < 0.05), gender (more women than men, Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) 1.97 95% CI 1.49-2.62, p < 0.001) smoking status (non smokers than smokers) and education (a clear trend, the higher the level of education, the more likely they would agree that parental smoking influences children smoking, p = 0.18, pt < 0.05) were associated with the belief that parental smoking influences children in the household to smoke.

The score of Factor 6 did not show a clear trend across the six seasons (0.03 vs. 0.13, p = 0.182, ES = 0.16)..

There was also a clear trend between LWM and L ( p = 0.183/ p = 0.4), but no significant difference.

Regarding the presence of fetal sinuses, we compared median EBL with persistent sinuses via the Mann-Whitney U test and did not find a statistically significant difference, although there was a clear trend with 1,250 cc in cases with persistent fetal drainage versus 800 cc in cases without ( P = 0.184; Table 8 ).

Comparison for non-compliance with the pharmacopoeia limits (>2000 CFU/g) did not show a statistically significant difference between illegal and legal medicines, but a clear trend was observed (p = 0.1864, two-sided Fisher’s exact test).

Although PAFR expression did not reach statistical significance in either model, it showed a clear trend toward association with both MASLD (OR = 9.85, p = 0.197) and MASH (OR = 2.83, p = 0.068), supporting its potential role in disease progression (Table 2 ). 3.3 Hepatic Relative mRNA Expression of PAFR in Relation to Histological Features To further investigate the relationship between hepatic PAFR expression and histological characteristics of MASLD, we analyzed its expression across different grades of steatosis, lobular inflammation, hepatocellular ballooning, and NAS (Figure 3A ).

Although not significant there was a clear trend in the association between HHV-6A and HHV-6B [OR: 5.04 (0.53–247.07); P = 0.20, Figure 1C ], the lack of significance was probably due to the very low incidence of HHV-6B reactivation.

Although significance was still not reached, the result revealed a clear trend toward inferior DFS among patients with elevated RPMB levels (HR = 1.585, 95% Cl: 0.781–3.215, p = 0.2, Figure 4C ).
