“a positive trend”

Moreover, there was a positive trend to lower caretaker distress scores which would also reflect reduced symptom severity and frequency ( 25 ).

Although non-final positions had greater mean pitch values than final positions, the effect of string position on mean pitch showed a positive trend but failed to achieve a customary level of statistical significance ( X 2 = 2.80, df = 1, p = 0.09, R 2 = 0.253) 5 .

From 579 patients studied, 147 (25.4%) showed a positive trend, only 15 of these (10.3%) successively developed hypocalcaemia; from 249 patients with a negative trend 212 (85.2%) developed hypocalcaemia and with a doubt trend only 27 (14.7%) of 183 patients (31.6%).

Plants subjected to drought showed a statistically significant drop in growth index independently of inoculation, and treatment with both strains caused a positive trend in growth, resulting in a 16% higher growth index (Fig. 5 d).

Results We retrospectively found HER3 gene amplification with a univariate negative impact on disease-free survival (hazard ratio 2.35, 95% confidence interval 1.08 to 5.11, p = 0.031), whereas HER4 amplification showed a positive trend in overall and disease-free survival.

81–83 However, only small studies and case series are available in acute immune-mediated neuropathy, indicating a positive trend towards efficacy. 84–87 Our study provides in vitro and in vivo evidence of complement-related pathology in anti-pan-neurofascin-associated nodo-paranodopathy and thus sets the basis for further studies considering new therapeutic options in these severely affected individuals.

They found that Simple is not simple enough compared to other English texts, but there is a positive trend for the whole Wikipedia to become more readable as time goes by, and that the tagging of those articles that need more simplifications by editors is crucial for this achievement.

Overall, the studies demonstrated a positive trend in favor of PES for prolonging IELT, and no consistent or significant adverse events were reported.

A positive trend could be observed among women with moderate (aOR 2.0 [1.0–4.2]) and severe anxiety (aOR 2.0 [0.8–5.1]) as well as among women who trusted their family or friends (aOR 1.6 [1.0–2.8]) as a source of information for COVID-19. 4.

This finding is consistent with recent studies showing a positive trend of increasing blood pressure control among older adults (age ≥60) in the NHANES study population ( 18 , 21 ).

If there is a positive trend in vision restoration, treatments such as additional pulse therapy and/or orbital irradiation therapy should be continued; however, the total dose of MP should be limited to <8 g because of the potential for severe liver toxicity [ 4 - 7 ].

Although cochlear coverage was not a significant predictor of CAP (r = 0.15, p = 0.23) or SIR (r = 0.18, p = 0.15), a positive trend was observed ( Figure 3 ).

Another study among indigenous Siberians has shown that after adjusting body size and composition, as well as potentially confounding variables such as age, smoking status, ethnicity, and degree of urbanization, BMR is positively correlated with SBP and pulse pressure (PP) and a positive trend with DBP [ 42 ].

[ 32 ] found a positive trend in the intervention group, with significant decreases in HbA1c, HOMA-IR, fasting glucose and insulin, but no differences were observed between the studied groups.

Additionally, the relationship between absolute correlation and RF importance shows a positive trend, suggesting that genes with stronger phenotypic associations also contribute more substantially to predictive performance.

The industrialized production can witness a positive trend with introduction of SCC.

As can be seen from Figure 3 a, as the Al component in the buffer layer increases, the threshold voltage shows a positive trend on the horizontal axis (the voltage value decreases), indicating that the smaller voltage can pinch off the channel.

The attitudes of OR staff participating in this study showed a positive trend.

The PPGE abundances show a general negative trend against bulk Ni, while the IPGE show a positive trend (fig.

Additionally, the mean serum copper concentrations were found to have a strong significance and a positive trend toward the increasing quartile of serum hs-CRP.

On the basis of the population PK and exposure–response analysis, there was a positive trend for overall response rate (ORR) with increasing teclistamab exposure, with a plateau observed at the RP2D and no exposure–response trend for safety [ 19 ].

Although the majority of clinical variables have a positive trend across the patients who received ACEinh/ARB/HMGRi drugs, the associations were not statistically significant.

A positive trend is evident in the use of all devices, in particular the surgical mask (222.54%).

Although both studies showed a positive trend for fat intake and a negative trend for carbohydrate intake in relation to hypercholesterolemia, the level of significance differed slightly.

Conclusions: This study observes a positive trend in high-evidence publications.
