“a numerical trend”

Because the paired difference for overall cancer detection did not reach statistical significance, this finding should be interpreted as a numerical trend rather than definitive evidence of superiority.

At the final follow-up, patients with Ki-67 ≥ 15% displayed a numerical trend toward a higher rate of structural incomplete response, though this did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.123).

There was a numerical trend towards fewer reoperations within 1 year, fewer surgical site infections and fewer 30-day readmissions in the fast track group, but this was not statistically significant.

Although there was a numerical trend toward higher rates of advanced neoplasia in H. pylori + patients, we found that this association was not statistically significant (aOR 1.26; 95% CI: 0.96–1.64; p = 0.10) and this lack of statistical significance remained after multivariable adjustment (Table 3 ).

In addition, there was also a numerical trend to take more behaviors about having a more regular lifestyle (i.e., Item 1) and being more aware of the importance of family (i.e., Item 3) in the remission period.

In contrast, cinnarizine showed a numerical trend toward a lower incidence of appetite reduction compared with topiramate (4.2% vs. 14.6%).

The CD increased at the 0.25% DMP level ( p = 0.003), following a quadratic pattern, whereas the VH:CD ratio had only a numerical trend without statistical significance.

4 Overall survival (OS) analyses at SA1 revealed a numerical trend favoring D+CT versus P+CT (median 19.4 months [95% CI: 14.5–not reached] versus 15.9 months [95% CI: 11.6–19.3]; HR: 0.75 [95% CI: 0.53–1.05]; 55% maturity), 5 which was maintained at SA2 (DCO April 30, 2024; 20.2 mo [95% CI: 14.5–27.3] versus 15.9 mo [95% CI: 11.6–19.3]; HR: 0.74 [95% CI: 0.54–1.0

That is, although there is a numerical trend, self-judged accuracy (confidence) itself is not enough driving the reminder bias.

Nonetheless, there was a numerical trend favoring the intermediate dose, suggesting potential added benefit in patients at higher risk of progression.

However, there was a numerical trend for a greater rate of eADP metabolism to eAMP by HNC sEV compared to HD sEV which was driven by a single outlier and thus was not significant.

Although a numerical trend toward shorter PFS was observed with worsening LIPI categories in our cohort, this difference did not reach statistical significance.

While infants with severe brain injury (IVH ≥ III° and periventricular cysts) have been excluded from the study a numerical trend towards higher rates of IVH ≤ II° detected by MRI at term‐equivalent age in susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) was observed in the hsPDA group (22.7%) compared to the ntPDA (12.5%) and noPDA group (8.2%).

Yet, in our series, once PSM was adjusted by comorbidities, including age, sex, or pulmonary disease, the differences in mechanical ventilation disappeared although a numerical trend of non-apical forms was maintained.

Discussion Our results suggest a numerical trend toward higher rubber yield and stability in the rainy season, which may be partly attributed to elevated precipitation and temperature.

Taken together, these findings indicate a numerical trend toward poorer prognosis in patients with high SULF2 expression.

Even though it was not significant, the data indicate a numerical trend toward lower EQ-5D scores as the waiting times become longer.

Interestingly, the severity of comorbidities, assessed through the CCI, and the number of comorbidities did not statistically significantly impact PFS or OS, but did however show a numerical trend favoring a CCI score of 0.

Although a numerical trend toward higher mortality was observed in patients with elevated SII, the association did not reach statistical significance.

In subgroup analysis by tumor size in each tumor type, a numerical trend toward improved RFS was observed in patients with tumors ≤3 cm than those with tumors >3 cm ( Supplementary Figure S1A,B ).

There was a numerical trend to increased prevalence of bronchiectasis (70.0% vs 41.9%) and chronic rhinosinusitis (85.7% vs 33.8%) in CF carriers, but this did not reach statistical significance.

They did not meet their primary objective of PFS improvement in pretreated HR + /HER2− ABC over ET of physician’s choice 42 , 43 , although a numerical trend suggested greater benefit in the presence of ESR1 mutations.

DRSS improvement Rates of at least 2-step DRSS improvement were largely consistent across treatment arms and between the YOSEMITE Japan subgroup and the pooled YOSEMITE/RHINE cohort at weeks 52 and 96, although there was a numerical trend for higher proportions in the faricimab arms versus the aflibercept arm in the YOSEMITE Japan subgroup (Fig. 5 ).

In our cohort, the combination of radiotherapy or chemotherapy with surgery demonstrated a numerical trend toward improved OS, LR, and DM, except at 36 months, compared to surgery alone.

There is a numerical trend in favor of lidocaine 700 mg medicated plaster, which is more pronounced in the population with PHN than pDPN.
