“a positive trend”

The data showed a positive trend in social-cultural support restoring across time when families resettled successfully in the village.

Beyond the site scale, drier conditions have been associated with the lack of a positive trend in the minimum late summer atmospheric [CO 2 ] (a proxy of photosynthetic CO 2 uptake) in northern ecosystems since the 1990 s (Angert et al., 2005 ).

Systematic reviews report inconsistent findings, with some demonstrating no benefit of vitamin D supplementation on spirometry outcomes [ 19 ] and others showing a positive trend between vitamin D and parameters such as forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV 1 ), FEV 1 % and forced vital capacity (FVC) % [ 3 ].

Importantly, the levels of KHDC4 and TRAF2 increased with rising Gleason scores, in contrast to using KLK3 (PSA) as a prognosis factor, which did not exhibit a positive trend ( Figure 3C ) ( Supplementary Table 10 ).

The higher frequency of social references in our study indicates that users are either having more real-world interactions about which they reflect in the online community or, alternatively, that more of their social life is happening in the community because real-life social relationships were restricted, both supporting a positive trend away from ED-typical social withdrawal.

Taking all follow-up cases into account, a significant superiority of our approach could not be proven but a positive trend was observed, which is already a remarkable outcome, in particular for individual patients (Figure 3a and Figure 6 ).

However, motor vehicular-related mortality indicated a positive trend in 1998 (38.5%) but a negative trend in 2015 (−8.4%).

Among the 11 analyses that met all three MR assumptions, 4 demonstrated a significant causal difference between BMI and keratoconus, while the remaining 7 showed a positive trend but were not statistically significant.

Specific lncRNA genes involved in the early differentiation of Th1 and Th2 subsets were identified, and a positive trend in the expression of the lineage-specific lncRNAs and the neighboring protein-coding genes was observed [ 48 ].

The rates of condom use (male and female) at last sex show a positive trend in many regions with some Latin American and European countries reporting rates among 15 to 24 year olds of more than 80%, although lower increase of around 30% have been recorded in some African countries. 4 In particular, condom use at last higher-risk sex has increased over the past 3 decades in most countries across the world and is as high as 80%–90% in some countries. 17 DVR vaginal rings do not protect against STIs and pregnancy and if introduced into a population with high rates of condom use at last high-risk sex, it would be important to support the use of both methods.

The pooled data in the mild AD cohort failed to reveal an improvement in ADCS-ADL, although there was a positive trend.

Health outcomes demonstrate a positive trend for all groups between 1999 and 2010 (Tables 6 and 8 , Fig 2e–2g ).

At the end of the two-week study, additional tests were conducted using a control product, revealing a positive trend of change in the groups.

Low rates of change in occupancy might indicate a positive trend in the site occupation of species within this protected area.

This is a positive trend because, if the public are willing to accept CHS as a referral body, to some extent, CHS can function as a gatekeeper and coordinator.

The transfusion dependence plot reveals a distinctive pattern, with SHAP values displaying a negative trend for individuals without blood transfusions and a positive trend for those who received blood transfusions, emphasizing the substantial impact of blood transfusions on the likelihood of wound infection.

Conversely, a positive trend was identified in the state of Bihar, where in 1993, 90% of food grains were diverted away from those in need; by 2001 this figure was down to just 12.5% of diverted food grain [ 56 ].

We found an association between CDASI and skin IFN signature scores (β=12.9, P=0.0002), an association between 5-D Itch Scale and skin IFN signature scores (Rho =0.65, P<0.0001), a lack of association between 5-D Itch Scale and blood IFN signature scores (Rho =0.22, P=0.24), and a positive trend that did not reach significance between CDASI and 5-D Itch Scale scores.

The number of scans also affected the resulting final surface coverage, although with a much more limited impact, showing a positive trend with the increase in the number of scans.

Teeth capping with LCG-TDM showed a positive trend towards dentin regeneration, as one important prognostic feature for dentin regeneration is the abundance of dentinal tubules, as well as cytological features of the odontoblast cells, as reported by da Silva et al.

One double‐blind, sham‐controlled trial investigating nVNS for the acute treatment of cluster headache did not meet its IHS‐recommended primary endpoints of pain freedom within 15 min; however, it demonstrated a positive trend in treatment response, particularly among patients with episodic cluster headache (ECH).

Public complementary health insurance improved access to dental care (aOR = 2.42, 95% CI = 1.48, 3.95), and private supplemental complementary health insurance was linked to a positive trend toward significantly better access (aOR = 1.64, 95% CI = 1.02, 2.65). 3.3.

The systematic review showed a positive trend between higher protein intakes (above the PRI) and higher femoral neck and total hip BMD.

Forage demand-supply balance considering natural grasslands only We found a positive trend in theoretical carrying capacity of natural grassland per area in most of China, with the largest increases being concentrated in the ecological restoration area of the Green for Grain Project (GGP), especially in central and eastern Inner Mongolia, Gansu, and northern Shaanxi (Fig.

Furthermore, women had a positive trend between serum ferritin and the number of adverse body compositions, which was not seen in men.
