“a positive trend”

Results: There was a positive trend showing self-employed (pf = 1.74, P = 0.45), having skilled work (pf = 1.52, P = 0.72), regular pattern of employment (pf = 1.21, P =.60), monthly mode of income (pf = 1.43, P =.76) were factors associated with abstinence.

Conversely, for participants with a family history of AD (FH+), there was a positive trend between vitamin B12 intake and connectivity in IC 8 (beta value = 0.0007; p = 0.4703), and a negative trend for IC 19 (beta value −0.0006; p = 0.4549), although these trends were not statistically significant.

Factors Associated with Publication and Waste Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze associations of key study characteristics with “publication status” and with “research waste status.” For publication status (Table 3 ), a large sample size (≥ 300 participants) showed a positive trend towards publication (OR = 2.00, 95% CI: 0.34–15.94, P = 0.459).

While a positive trend was seen ( rightmost column, Fig. 5b , blue ), this was not significant (Pearson correlation p = 0.47, N = 33).

Furthermore, the logistic regression assessing the association between PTSD score and participants’ characteristics showed that distance from the blast had a positive trend for an association with the PTSD score (aOR = 1.480, P = .47, 95% CI [0.557, 5.099]); however, the association did not reach a significance.

TRF interventions showed null effects for HDL-c (k = 8, 0.00 (95% CI [−0.60, 0.61]), p = 0.99), and a positive trend to reduce the LDL-c (k = 7, 4.48 (95% CI [−7.60, 16.56]), p = 0.47), total cholesterol (k = 8, 8.14 (95% CI [−8.37, 24.65]), p = 0.33) and triglycerides (k = 9, 8.93 (95% CI [−1.58, 19.45]), p = 0.10) levels ( Table 3 ; Figure 3 ).

The frequency of spike‐specific Tfh cells at 2 weeks postboost showed a positive trend, but the correlation with anti‐RBD IgG titers at the same time point did not reach statistical significance ( r = 0.2143, p = 0.4819, Figure 6 A).

In the YMA group, Zn exhibited a positive trend with neonatal body weight ( p = 0.50), while Ca showed a robust positive correlation with neonatal body length ( p = 0.49).

Correlation between language function and connectivity scores A positive trend was seen between FC z score and CL_SS (r2 = 0.018, P = 0.517), RL_SS (r2 = 0.003, P = 0.807), EL_SS (r2 = 0.127, P = 0.080), LC_SS (r2 = 0.019, P = 0.510), although it was not statistically significant [ Figure 5 ].

Their mean specificity also showed a positive trend (72.4%; 95% CI 66.2%-78.6%; P =.54), so that the overall accuracy also increased significantly to 73.6% (95% CI 70.9%-76.3%; P =.002).

Looking specifically at diffusion parameters’ values for the left uncinate fasciculus and verbal fluency scores in the AD group, we observed a positive trend between the letter fluency scores and mode of anisotropy values ( r = 0.36, p = 0.55).

Although physical function showed a positive trend (+1.2 points; 95% CI, −2.8–5.2), this change was not statistically significant ( p = 0.552).

While there was a positive trend, there was no significant difference between groups (RR: 1.18 [95% CI: 0.66–2.10]; p = 0.570) (Figure 3 ).

Results of meta-regression showed that mean age was not significantly associated with MD in TBUT scores between CsA and ATs and showed a positive trend (point estimate 0.03, P =0.58, online supplementary file 9 ).

Although a positive trend was observed in the comparison with the concurrent non-exposed cohort, the difference was not statistically significant (OR 1.18, 95% CI 0.65–2.14; p = 0.583).

For daily averages, both sites presented a positive trend of 0.18 μg m −3 year −1 ( p = 0.59) and 0.15 μg m −3 year −1 ( p = 0.59), while the daily 95th percentiles showed a positive and higher trend (0.27 μg m −3 year −1 ( p = 0.73) and 0.24 μg m −3 year −1 ( p = 0.70)) than daily P5 (0.10 μg m −3 year −1 ( p = 0.49) and 0.07 μg m −3 year −1 ( p = 0.46)).

Additionally, a positive trend was observed for the correlation between the number of anophelines and rainfall (r = 0.17, p = 0.59) but also with no statistical significance.

In order to exclude the possibility that the NLR trend was due to a concurrent bacterial or fungal superinfection, we compared the rates of superinfections among patients who had a positive trend with those who had a negative trend and observed that the presence of a superinfection was not associated with a higher NLR trend at admission (χ 2 (1, N = 469) = 0.45, p = 0.6) ( Fig. 4 ).

AFL pretreatment had no statistically significant effect on the Cal/BD foam treatment response (see Figure S3 ) but showed a positive trend in clinical improvement (+19.3% reduction in median N‐NAIL score, p = 0.62; +20.0% reduction in median NAPSI score, p = 0.45).

In men, the indices of physical health (Tau = −0.250, P = .036) and mental health (Tau = −0.250, P = .037) showed a significant decrease, fatigue, and error rates demonstrated a negative trend (Tau = −0.083, P = .49, Tau = −0.056, P = .63, respectively), and reaction time proved a positive trend (Tau = 0.058, P = .62).

Secondary Outcomes Subjective sleep quality improved in the active light treatment group, showing a positive trend that was not observed in the sham group ( p = 0.62) ( Table 3 ).

Shear stress was observed to have a positive trend with age ( ρ = 0.47), but shear rate was found to be independent of age ( ρ = −0.07; p = 0.62).

Accuracy showed a positive trend for all tenure levels, except for the 11–15 years tenure level where it showed a slightly decreasing trend (only SQ 55.56%, only CBIR 50% p = 0.64, Table 3 e).

Boys from private schools wearing SU presented higher CRF ( p = 0.016; ES = 0.37), and a positive trend was observed for MF ( p = 0.645; ES = 0.21).

In addition, by comparing sequence libraries from PD-patients who were subjected to a 0.25% sodium hypochlorite (diluted bleach) treatment, and whose conditions either improved or worsened after treatment [ 22 ], a positive trend was observed, showing a higher abundance of CBP in samples before treatment, and in samples that worsened after treatment (Kruskal-Wallis, p = 0.65; Fig. 4 d, p = 0.47; Fig. 4 e).
