In 2020, Conde‐Sampayo 54 conducted a systematic review of exposure to residential radon and COPD and reported a possible trend towards the existence of this association, though no definitive conclusion could be reached.

This difference in H1N1pdm09 transmission between ferret with single viral infections and Spn secondary infections was not statistically significant, nonetheless it highlights a possible trend towards decreased viral transmission in hosts with secondary Spn infection that merits further study.

Acceptability ratings were related to gender at P =.08, indicating a possible trend toward females finding the modules more satisfying than males.

The linear-by-linear association ( p = 0.040) suggests a possible trend, but a larger sample size would be required in further research. 3.12.

The distribution of surgeries suggests a possible trend toward fewer extensive procedures in the neoadjuvant methotrexate group.

In order to investigate whether a possible trend may be assumed in the comparisons of GIC and amalgam, the chronological results from 4 datasets concerning restorations (single- and multiple surface combined) after 1 year (DS 07), 2 years (DS 08), 3 years (DS 14) and 5 years (DS 01) were included in a cumulative meta-analysis [ 20 , 25 , 26 ].

However, we observed a possible trend towards greater bleb survival in the short and medium term with its use.

In our comparison of the effect of anaesthesia type on results within each treatment group, we observed a possible trend towards more effective prevention of major VTE and VTE-related mortality when using either neuraxial or combination anaesthesia as opposed to general anaesthesia in the dabigatran groups.

The line slope near, but slightly below, 1.0 (95% confidence interval: 0.868–0.943) revealed that degradation produced a generally uniform increase in C t irrespective of an individual RNA’s abundance, with a possible trend toward a proportionally greater loss of higher abundant mRNAs.

Contig10532 (unknown protein) showed a possible trend toward reduced methylation but was not statistically significant in this experiment, and methylation levels of Contig11442.0 (6× RRM-containing) were unaffected by decitabine treatment, although it is possible that higher doses of drug or longer treatment length might have produced an effect.

Although we observed a possible trend toward increased absolute levels of FSH in women who received saline plus heparin, this was more likely from variable ovarian reserve (as measured by AMH), resulting in relatively higher overall FSH levels in the women in group 2—who also did not receive heparin—and group 3 with respect to the women in group 1.

Sex showed a borderline association (β = 0.484, OR = 1.62, p = 0.056), indicating a possible trend toward sex-related differences that did not reach statistical significance.

VEMP latencies were like those expected in adults, with a possible trend of P1 shortening with age at a rate of −0,35 ms/month.

5 CONCLUSION In Germany, alcohol‐specific mortality increased in 2020 compared to the preceding year, indicating a possible trend reversal in decreasing alcohol‐specific mortality rates since 2016.

The OR for County XVI is 2.00 (95% CI: 0.52–7.74), suggesting a possible trend, but the wide confidence interval and high p -value limit confidence in this effect.

We observed a possible trend change for female oral cancer in all Nordic countries at around 2015 but further years will show if the change is real.

The association between occupational status and satisfaction ( r = 0.108; p = 0.072) did not reach the conventional significance threshold but suggests a possible trend.

Silencing of GSTM1 in HUVECs led to an increased expression of endothelial adhesion molecules including MCP-1 and ICAM-1 and a possible trend in VCAM-1 overexpression.

Increased recognition of rare diseases by other nations such as Japan, Australia, Russia and Canada is an encouraging sign of a possible trend in addressing rare diseases.

When isolated to the late follow-up period alone, there was a non-significant reduction in BCC incidence with daily sunscreen users (RR 0.75, 95% CI 0.49–1.14), indicating a possible trend towards decreased BCC incidence over longer time periods [ 12 ]. 3.

Some form of oncological data has been reported only by eight studies[ 20 - 22 , 24 - 28 ] and, even though no differences have been reported in terms of disease free survival and overall survival in this systematic review, a recent meta-analysis highlighted a possible trend towards a lower 5 years overall survival for patients treated with a laparoscopic approach for ICC when compared to those operated by open approach[ 39 ].

Contrary to previous reports utilizing adenoviral vectors, clodronate liposome pretreatment resulted in a significant decrease in transgene expression in heart and liver tissue ( p < 0.05), and a possible trend towards a decrease in the spleen. 2.

Conclusion Compared with HAIT alone, HAIT-M-P was associated with improved PFS and tumor response rates, and showed a possible trend toward improved OS in patients with locally aggressive erHCC, which warrants further validation.
