“a significant trend”

The ADF test for LBP time series data of Chinese men indicated a significant trend ( p -value = 0.0292), confirming the series was smooth.

However, we found a significant trend for hsTnI to have better predictive value in those with versus without chronic kidney disease (interaction P =0.03) (Figure 3 ).

Furthermore, a significant trend was observed among individuals with impaired fasting glucose (IFG; -0.16, 95% CI -0.30 to -0.01, P = 0.03), while no significant changes were found in those with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT; P = 0.40).These findings underscore the importance of dietary copper intake in reducing cardiovascular mortality among hypertensive patients across various demographic and clinical subgroups, with notable variations in effects based on ethnicity, education level, and diabetes status(see table 4 ).

This was a significant trend ( p = 0.03).

Statistically, the control group had a significant trend p = 0.03, while the decrease in the BI of the test group tends to be significant p = 0.06.

In that age group, living within 50 m of the closest VHV-HVOL was significantly associated with AL (OR=2.6 (1.0–7.0)), with a significant trend with the inverse of the distance ( P =0.03), whereas there was no association for the older group (OR=1.0 (0.3–3.3) living within 50 m of the closest VHV-HVOL).

5 C, D, there was a significant trend between high miR-192-5p levels at T4 and both OS and LFS, and the correlation was stronger ( p = 0.03) in case of responders, as compared with patients losing response and non-responders.

We found a significant trend for more active MSUS in the later phases of preclinical disease development (p=0.03; figure 1 ).

The results of this analysis showed a significant trend favoring decompression alone over decompression with fusion for VAS back pain (MD = –7.48, 95% CI: –14.23 to –0.73, p = 0.03).

However, there was a significant trend showing increased risk of MS with increasing number of head impacts (p=0.03).

A significant trend for lower non-relapse mortality was found from group 1 to group 4 (log-rank test for trend p = 0.03; Figure 3 A).

Data for the intervention group show a significant trend of better medication intake (I 2 = 65%; DME = −0.31; IC of 95% = −0.57, −0.04; p = 0.03).

For women, there was a significant trend (p = 0.03) of increased mean BMI across the three categorical groups: no neoplasia (25.2 kg/m 2 ), low-risk adenomas (25.5 kg/m 2 ) and advanced neoplasia (26.7 kg/m 2 ) (Table 1 ).

When stratified by type of study, there was a significant trend in the SAPT group toward cardiovascular mortality in three observational studies [OR 2.01 (1.09, 3.69), p = 0.03), which was not shown in three RCTs.

Group comparison of pre-treatment BMI based on WHO criteria Although there were no significant differences in the mean values among the groups, the Jonckheere–Terpstra test showed a significant trend toward a stepwise increase in tongue pressure in each BMI group ( P = 0.03; Fig. 3 ).

Results The Mann–Kendall test for the mean annual temperature in the study region indicated a significant trend of increasing temperatures ( p = 0.03), while there was no change in annual total precipitation ( p = 0.94) in the last 20 years (Fig. 2 ).

Analysis showed a significant trend ( p- value = 0.03) for increasing risk of overall cancer with increasing employment duration, indicating that carcinogenic exposure at work could be of importance for the cancer risk among firefighters.

After adjusting for potential confounders, the multivariate-adjusted HRs associated with low levels of physical activity were 1.34 (95% CI 1.01–1.78) for 1–2 h of daily household activities per week and 1.85 (95% CI 1.01–3.38) for less than 1 h per week, compared to subjects engaging in the highest level of daily household activities, with a significant trend ( p value = 0.03).

The results of the current study indicated a significant trend of decreased HCC risk in DM patients who received occasional metformin treatment (Table 2 , trend test P = .03).

Lower FEV1, FEV1%Pred, and FEV1/FVC showed a significant trend with shorter aTL (p = 0.030, 0.029, and 0.037, respectively), while FVC and FVC %Pred did not.

This showed a significant trend for both BE (RR trend = 1.35, 95 % CI 1.03–1.76, p = 0.03) and EAC (RR trend = 1.43, 95 % CI 1.03–2.00, p = 0.03).

However, in the stratified analysis there was a significant trend ( P = 0.030), with higher ORs in those sampled closer to GCA diagnosis, i.e. quartile 1 [OR (per S.D.) 2.40; 95% CI 0.98–5.85, P = 0.055] and quartile 2 [8.50–11.96 years before diagnosis; OR (per S.D.) 3.13; 95% CI 0.92–10.63, P = 0.067], respectively, compared with those sampled with a longer duration to diagnosis.

When assessing the frequency of the use of surgical access routes over the years, we observed a significant trend towards an increase in the use of laparoscopic access and a reduction in laparotomy (z = 2.09; p = 0.03) ( Figure 2 ).

A stable slightly higher prevalence was observed in urban versus rural areas (p<0.0001), and there was also a significant trend towards higher prevalence rates in groups with a monthly household income larger than 3,500 € (p=0.03).

There was a significant trend towards less sepsis-related GI complications in the probiotic group too (9% vs. 36%, P = 0.03).
