“a statistical trend”

When using a 35% threshold criteria for improvement on the GBS, the difference between DC and HRT achieved a statistical trend for three out of four comparisons (i.e., non-significant finding; see Table 3 ).

Patients with nfPPA were most impaired in face imitation, and bvFTD also showed a statistical trend toward lower performance in face imitation compared with AD patients.

A statistical trend toward a decrease in the time associated with the sedentary state was also observed.

In studies evaluating the cognitive effect of IFN β-1a relative to placebo, a class II RCT was conducted among 436 secondary-progressive MS patients, of which researchers of the IMPACT trial found a statistical trend of improvement (small effect: Cohen’s d = 0.20) on the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT) over 2 years in the treatment group relative to the placebo group [ 17 ].

Differences were considered statistically significant at P < 0.05, and 0.05 ≤ p < 0.10 was interpreted as a statistical trend where appropriate.

However, in the GEN sample, there was a statistical trend, with APGAR5 as the most relevant predictor (higher Apgar score, higher IQ score).

Conversely, in a study of 125 patients, a statistical trend toward a worst prognosis in ALS patients with the highest 25OH VD levels was found ( 8 ).

There was also no statistical difference in the rate of change between the two groups, but there was a statistical trend.

Given that the finding refers to a statistical trend, replication in a larger sample would be necessary to draw strong conclusions.

In contrast to prior findings, we did not observe a significant relationship between contrast sensitivity and subjective visual distortions in PSZ, r s = 0.03, p = .84; However, there was a statistical trend for High PLEs endorsing visual distortions (N = 22) to have poorer contrast sensitivity than those that did not (N = 27), though this difference was not significant, t(47) = − 1.94, p = .06, d = − .56.

A value of p < 0.10 was considered a statistical trend.

A p -value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant, while a p -value between 0.05 and 0.1 was considered to indicate a statistical trend.

Regarding velocity, maximum velocity was higher in the two last time points in the CS-platelets upon coagulation initiation either intrinsically or extrinsically, while a shorter time (or a statistical trend) was needed to reach this value in comparison to the RT-platelets.

For the adherent sample, a significant beta-power decrease at bilateral temporal sites was measured, which was also found for the control group as a statistical trend, but not for the non-adherent sample.

In the logistic regression model, lower FII activity and higher age were associated with CVTCs, while platelet count demonstrated a statistical trend.

However, there was a statistical trend toward higher frequency and MFI in CD3 + TILs expressing ICs in CMS1 (containing mainly MSI tumors) versus the other subgroups (significant for Tim-3 (Dunn’s multiple comparisons test, p = 0.0382) and TIGIT (Kruskal–Wallis test, p = 0.0446)) ( Figure S3A,B ).

There was also a statistical trend towards an age-dependent increase in males, which was not observed in females.

Although IRS-2 protein was also reduced in ethanol-fed rats, the difference from control only constituted a statistical trend.

Our study failed to provide any clarity on the mechanism behind the reductions in blood glucose concentrations, as only a statistical trend for greater insulin levels were found in BHB infused cows.

There was a statistical trend in the free-standing pharmacy cost comparison indicating less cost for the control group.

Three cemeteries per segment were selected, because a statistical trend was observed using this number.

With respect to pre- and post-GVHD onset differences, the number of datapoints was not sufficient for a statistical trend analysis.

This ZT4-specific effect distinguished activation of GHSR-expressing SCN neurons from activation of GHSR-expressing ARC neurons: food intake was increased in “misses/ARC” following CNO at all four time points; this increase was 530% at ZT4 ( Figures 1O – 1R and Table S4 ; 0.05 ≤ p < 0.1 [indicating a statistical trend] for three time points).

469 In a separate small 6‐month placebo‐controlled trial, there was a statistical trend for lower relapse rates with fluoxetine compared to placebo. 503 Finally, a post hoc analysis of a large 12‐month placebo‐controlled trial found that response rates to fluoxetine were similar in BDII and MDD. 468 However, it did not report whether fluoxetine was superior to placebo in BDII.

After iron depletion, Cyp46a1 transcript showed a statistical trend towards a 1.5-fold increase; it was not altered after iron overload.
