“a significant trend”

This is in line with the results of Vinycomb et al who performed a trend analysis on the number of palpated tumors observed between 2005 and 2015 and found a significant trend. 53 It is thought that this decrease is caused by earlier presentation and/ or less experience of the medical staff. 18 Furthermore, we found different parameters and corresponding cut-off values for ultrasonography which could be used for diagnosing IHPS.

A significant trend was observed for greater social adversity and higher ChEAT‐24 score ( p ‐trend = .02).

Contrasting trends north and south of 45° N, pronounced advancement at elevations of 1500–3000 m, and the absence of a significant trend above 3000 m demonstrate that vegetation type, latitude, elevation, and topography jointly shape regional phenology.

Status of FPG and IFG According to Age and Sex As shown in Figure 1(a) , the mean value of FPG showed a significant trend with increasing age ( p for trend <0.001).

CIR dose-response investigations of male pilot MSC mortality in the ESCAPE and large German cohort failed to show clear evidence of an association between cumulative CIR dose and melanoma risk with only observations of non-significant positive estimates that did not exhibit a significant trend test across categories.

This may be due to the low number of our sampling sites and the lack of a significant trend in hydrothermal conditions between sample sites in the longitude direction [ 62 ].

They found a significant trend for higher stopping torques with more years of surgical experience, a variable that will be explored later in this review.

The assessment of asymmetry (an indicator of a significant trend in data) represented the effect size (level of expression of the trend) for Bowker's test ( 43 ), and Cramer's V represented the effect size for the chi-square test.

Groundwater levels displayed a significant decreasing trend in the headwater region of Yellow River (B and C wells), and a significant trend in the endorheic basins (D wells).

BKMR analysis indicated a significant trend of increasing likelihood of prenatal anxiety symptoms with higher levels of the OH-PAHs mixture.

This is further supported by a significant trend toward globalization, global consumption culture, and the use of new digital technologies both by the immigrant and majority business enterprises and their stakeholders like suppliers, government agencies, and customers.

27 , 28 Lumbar spine In most centres, the primary method of surgical management is still open discectomy facilitated by microscope or loupe magnification but there has been a significant trend towards minimally invasive discectomy (MID) in the last decade.

Abstract Population ageing is a significant trend in social development and will remain a fundamental national condition in China for the foreseeable future.

And, in general, there appears to be a significant trend towards shorter proteins in the absence of other, more specific functional constraints.

The pursuit of minimizing surgical trauma and complications marks a significant trend in the evolution of surgical practices.

In fact, a significant trend towards an increase of RON was observed in ACR TI-RADS when going from the lower- to the higher-risk categories, in line with what was previously described in the current literature, and, in particular, about the initial ACR TI-RADS white paper [ 23 ].

A significant trend toward reduced recurrence rates with increasing mesh size was noted (a “large” mesh was most often 10 × 15 cm 2 size).

Finally, a significant trend towards decreased voriconazole resistance was noted in TR 34 /L98H isolates in the above-mentioned resistance survey. 49 In 2013 96% (44 of 46) of TR 34 /L98H isolates were classified as voriconazole resistant, while in 2018 only 55% (59 of 108) of TR 34 /L98H isolates exhibited a voriconazole-resistant phenotype ( P = 0.0001). 49 However, no underlying mechanism was found that could explain the voriconazole phenotype shift.

It is also possible that the follow-up period was short and P1NP has not yet shown a significant trend.

In the fully adjusted model, the probability of albuminuria was 24% higher in Tertile 3 (OR: 1.24, 95% CI: 1.02–1.51), with a significant trend observed across tertiles (p for trend = 0.0421) (see Table 2 ).

We observed that the increment of the cognitive load within the different conditions of the task worsened the performance of both groups, without a significantly greater number of errors being made by ADHD participants when the difficulty of the task increased, although there was a significant trend.

In this system, the p107-1* construct showed a significant trend towards increased reporter expression, suggesting that the distal site mediated a significant amount of repression of the p107 promoter that could not be compensated by the presence of the proximal site ( Figure 1D ).

Additionally, a recent study suggested that daytime sleep became longer and more frequent with aging, and the aging effect showed a significant trend of accelerating during AD progression [ 15 ].

When the addition of PE, (A) was set at a low value (A = 5 μL/mL), the supplemental level of GSE (B) was fixed, and with the increase in the supplemental level of gelatin (C), the Y value showed a slight increase at first, and then a significant trend of continuous decline.

Since 2008, there has been a significant trend towards an increase in the number of toothpaste products containing hydroxyapatite ( Figure 4 ). 3.4.
