“a positive trend”

Iron supplementation in anemic female GBM patients showed a positive trend toward increased median-OS, whereas no such association was observed in anemic males [ 20 ].

A temporal signal was supported by a positive trend, calculated within TEMPEST (v1.5; Rambaut et al., 2016 ; RRID: SCR_017304 ), between each sequence’s root-to-tip distance and its sampling time and the results of a tip-date randomisation procedure ( Firth et al., 2010 ).

The embryonic gene expression for SMED30002016 indicates this gene is expressed at the expected stages given prior knowledge of the timing of organ development in Schmidtea mediterranea (a positive trend begins at Stage 5, with a marked increase by Stage 6 that remains comparable to the asexual expression levels shown).

For Apt-77, although the biomarker levels in the Y strain infected mice were not statistically significant, a positive trend was observed ( Fig. 6C ).

Moreover, in some cases, a positive trend in the degree of expression from the superficial areas to the deeper regions was observed.

Further within-mushroom Mg fractionation would follow a positive trend (Fig. 2 a) also observed for vascular plants and for a sample of X. subtomentosus mushroom from the amphibolite-based catchment (Bolou-Bi et al. 2012 ; Novak et al. 2020 ; Andronikov et al. 2022 ).

In the adjusted model for socio-economic factors, we observed a negative trend in HAZ with an increase in FVS and a positive trend in WHZ for an increase in DDS.

In the final model (Model III), the study showed that for every one-unit increase in MetS-VF, the risk of stroke increased by 40% [HR: 1.47, 1.23–1.76)]; further analysis, where MetS-VF was converted into a categorical variable, showed that after fully controlling for confounding factors, there was still a positive trend between MetS-VF and stroke risk ( P trend=0.0213).

The results of observational studies showed a positive trend between serum 25(OH)D level <20 ng/ml and an increased risk of mortality (Relative Risk (RR) = 2.09 (0.92 to 4.77)), Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission (RR= 4.89 (0.54 to 44.26)), invasive ventilation (RR= 1.34 (0.64 to 2.79)), non-invasive ventilation (RR= 1.08 (0.30 to 3.80)) or SARS-CoV-2 positivity (RR= 1.35 (0.93 to 1.96)).

A positive trend was seen in the decrease in mutans streptococci within the test group at the coated sites, although it was not significant.

In conclusion, this phase Ib trial of unresectable stage IIIC–IV melanoma demonstrated that OrienX010 is safe and well tolerated with a positive trend of antitumor effects and may be a valuable agent for patients with melanoma.

Although educational status was not statistically significant (p = 0.087), a positive trend was evident.

While dance interventions demonstrated a positive trend in some studies, particularly when compared to education [ 47 ], the overall meta-analysis results for the SLT were not statistically significant (SMD = 0.24, 95% CI: −0.50, 0.99) (Fig. 2 ).

The association between WWI and MAFLD demonstrated a positive trend with increasing WWI ( p for trend <0.001), with the highest risk observed in the Q4 group.

These findings demonstrated a low level of leisure-time physical activity of women but they also indicated a positive trend of the gradually increasing percentage of women who were physically active on regular basis ( Table 1 ).

Among 31 pairs of correlations obtained, 26 showed a positive trend.

Similarly, while the number of research publications was not significantly associated with higher attitude scores (p = 0.231), a positive trend was observed, with scores increasing progressively among students with more number publications.

The temporal trend may also reflect lower energy needs due to warmer climate as well as a positive trend in the availability of food in the autumn, either through increased food production in late growing season, a reduced number of consumers, or due to changes in the availability of potential food sources.

However, in perception, no statistically significant results were found for the correlation between the two cues, although with a positive trend.

A positive trend could also be seen between autoradiography of the hindbrain and increasing B cell count, reflective of the disease state.

However, a third special cause variation indicated a positive trend in dose‐based appropriateness during the QIP (Figure S5B ).

An inverted U trend with PM 0.1-PA exposure, a positive trend with PM 2.5-PA exposure, and a negative trend with PM 10-PA exposure were found.

Results Participant performance analysis revealed that 80% of the curriculum demonstrated a positive trend in knowledge acquisition postintervention.

However, on the regional scale a positive trend emerged in the Western Siberia Lowlands.

Further subgroup analysis revealed that in obese participants, there were trends for negative correlations between sACE2 levels and total cholesterol (TC) and HDL-C, as well as a positive trend with glucose levels.
