We found modest differences in timing of outcomes among patients monitored with real‐time results (non‐Holter), compared with those using traditional Holter test—in general and contrary to expected, real‐time ambulatory monitoring patients did not undergo cardiac procedures sooner and did not present to emergency department or hospitalization sooner, though there was a favorable trend toward earlier initiation of oral anticoagulation among patients with real‐time monitoring.

The TUG test, assessing functional mobility and balance [ 45 ], showed a favorable trend for the exoskeleton group, suggesting potential improvements in dynamic mobility, including standing and initiating walking.

( 2024 ) tested the Pinhole Surgical Technique associated with A‐PRF versus collagen membrane, reporting similar results in pain (NRS), KTW, and GT at 3 months, with a favorable trend toward PRF.

In contrast, intranasal cooling was proved to be able to allow for the rapid achievement of the target temperature (34 °C) compared to other methods, 53 and a sub-analysis of the Princess trial 54 showed a favorable trend after rapid intranasal cooling in the sub-population with a shockable presenting rhythm.

There was a statistical difference in conjunctival hyperemia favoring KPI-121, while ocular discomfort showed a favorable trend versus placebo but without a statistical difference.

Updated data from this trial demonstrated a favorable trend in overall survival and response even within the pMMR subgroup, although statistical significance was not reached [ 14 ].

Although reductions in TNF-α showed a favorable trend, inflammation did not independently predict CAP improvement in this model.

The pooled HRs of analysis of among women with either HER-2 positive or HER-2 negative status showed a favorable trend but no statistical difference between the 2 treatment arms.

The two most common MBS procedures [sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB)] have been extensively studied recently, showing a favorable trend towards decreased rates of short-term morbidity and mortality, including a decreased risk of deep vein thrombosis/pulmonary embolism (DVT/PE), staple line or anastomotic leak, surgical site infection, and the need for reoperation [ 17 , 18 ], all of which were more significant in the past.
