However, there was a clear trend for men to have the lowest muscle tension during MINDFUL, and the tension decreased minute-by-minute.

In the case of noise, we observe a clear trend with decreasing exposure levels following improving socioeconomic conditions with average differences up to 2.8 dB Lden between areas with social challenges and areas with very good socioeconomic conditions.

A clear trend for molar mass could not be seen or may have been overshadowed by the branching effect.

Again, a clear trend is observable in which the needles of larger sections lose less mass compared to the samples of greater diameter during the 60-min test.

A clear trend of decreasing floristic abundance was assessed along the gradient of nitrogen pollution.

Reflecting the development of NIV therapy in COPD, there is a clear trend of applying higher IPAP levels in order to achieve augmented ventilation and positive outcomes. 1 – 4 Of note, the current study observed that real-life IPAP levels reach a mean of 23 mbar, which is in line with recent RCTs by Köhnlein et al 3 (mean IPAP of 22 mbar) and Struik et al 4 (mean IPAP of 21 mbar).

While a larger Phase 3 trial did not reach significance for reduction in mild RTIs, there was a clear trend to improved immune function (Mannick et al. 2021 ). mTOR inhibitors therefore offer a therapeutic route to enhance ageing immune responses against viral pathogens for which we currently lack effective pharmacological interventions.

On the other hand, the behavior during the first 20 min of Fe and As leaching percentages does not show a clear trend, possibly due to sample heterogeneity, the natural association of arsenopyrite with other mineral phases, or the occlusion of arsenopyrite within other mineral phases present in the tailings.
