Results from the segmented regression, although not statistically significant, suggested a decreasing trend in patient enrollment before site PI turnover and an immediate decrease after turnover; the estimates for the preturnover trend, turnover quarter, and postturnover trend were −0.25 ( P = .15), −1.37 ( P = .26), and 0.39 ( P = .29), respectively ( Figure ).

However, recent studies based on satellite rainfall measurements 12 , 13 demonstrate that the TC rainfall rate shows a decreasing trend in the inner-core of the rainband with increases in the outer bands.

The length of grain significantly reduced in 2020 and 2021, whereas the width did not change significantly in 2021, only a decreasing trend.
