A significant trend was observed across strata (Spearman rho = 0.257, p = 0.002), highlighting the clinical relevance of lactate thresholds in early risk assessment. 3.7 Model stability (EPV analysis) Events-per-variable (EPV) calculations are shown in Supplementary Table S8 .

There is a significant trend on progressive increase in ECV value from the basal towards the apical segments in both the right (p = 0.002) and the left (p < 0.001) ventricle.

In men, there was a significant trend across the mean values of 4 quantiles of SFA for HT ( P = .002), FL-US ( P < .001), and ALT-E ( P < .001), but not for DL, IGM, or GGTP-E.

Lower ratio of kallistatin to total protein in BALF showed a significant trend toward elevated neutrophil counts (P = 0.002) in BALF and increased mortality (P = 0.046).

There was also a significant trend in reducing plasma TAG (-50%) in G (Ala12) carriers as the PUFA:SFA ratio increased from 0.34 to 0.65 ( p = 0.002).

A likelihood ratio test of the reduced model against the null model revealed a significant trend of decreasing entropy (linear mixed-effect: χ 2 (1) = 9.45, P = 0.002).

The LCCG meta-analysis did show a significant trend (p = 0.002) against the adoption of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with a worsening performance status (PS) [ 23 ] In this regard, LACE subgroup analysis showed increasing benefits from adjuvant chemotherapy with better PS (0 vs 1), with a detrimental effect for PS 2 (test for trend p = .009 for OS) [ 18 ].

Friends and neighbors were significantly more common mechanism of coping in women if they had more children, and a significant trend was detected in our study (Chi-square for trend P value = 0.002).

However, when the data from the 3 visits were combined and corrected for repeated measurements, there was a significant trend toward higher levels of CRP in affected individuals ( P = 0.002 versus unaffected).
