“a statistical trend”

Nevertheless, only a statistical trend was identified for male gender.

If an association was indicated in this first analysis by a statistical trend, further analyses were run to investigate whether a certain period during pregnancy was of particular importance.

Results revealed that the interaction effect between tributyrin and LPS challenge was not significant ( p = 0.066) but showed a statistical trend.

Stimulation mode was correctly identified above chance in the second of the two sessions; 65% of all participants correctly identified the stimulation mode, resulting in a statistical trend.

No significant association could be found between the immunodetection of ApoE, ApoJ, or ApoA-I and the APOE genotype, except for a statistical trend pointing toward a link between APOE ε2 genotype and higher presence of ApoE in cortical arteries.

SUL-DUR met the primary end point of 28-day all-cause mortality showing noninferiority compared with colistin in a microbiologically modified intent-to-treat population, with a statistical trend toward lower mortality among patients who received SUL-DUR vs colistin (19% [12/63] vs 32.3% [20/62], respectively).

However, there was a statistical trend towards an OS improvement by adding cetuximab to the gemcitabine maintenance therapy (study arm B), although a statistical significance could not be achieved.

Finally, there was a statistical trend for deeper and larger ulcers to show a 1.5-line visual improvement in the corticosteroid group than in the placebo group ( P -value, 0.07).

Results Father relationship type showed a statistical trend toward decelerated aging (Horvath, β=3.5, 95%CI ‐0.02 to 7.0).

P values <0.05 were considered to indicate a statistically significant difference, and P values <0.1 represented a statistical trend.

That we found only a statistical trend when correlating BOLD and RT could be due to there being an indirect, non-linear link between the factors.

A p-value less than 0.05 indicated a significant difference, whereas a p-value larger than 0.05 but less than 0.10 indicated a statistical trend.

Specifically, every stage of halfbeak mate choice behavior, from males swimming under females to performing courtship behaviors, leading to copulations (albeit a statistical trend), was exaggerated when males were presented with females that had larger gravid spots.

As a proof of concept study, we analysed the MMP11 plasma levels in the NMRI (nu/nu) tumor-free healthy mice and in the NMRI (nu/nu) mice bearing subcutaneous head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) xenograft tumors and found a statistical trend toward increased MMP11 levels in the tumor-bearing mice (Figure S6D).

Results Firstly, group contrasts of two big samples of patients with tinnitus (n = 231) and healthy controls (n = 120) revealed significant differences in short-interval intra-cortical inhibition (SICI), intra-cortical facilitation (ICF; with a statistical trend), and cortical silent period (CSP).

Despite the very small sample size ( N = 12 in the experimental group, N = 6 in the control group receiving treatment as usual), there was a statistical trend indicating the superiority of the experimental group over the control group in global cognition, mood, and behavioral symptoms.

No relationship was observed between TKI and HT, although it was identified a statistical trend with nilotinib (Table 2 ).

TLE patients showed significantly reduced prosody recognition compared to CG, and in the morph task, there was a statistical trend towards significantly reduced performance for TLE.

This finding was seen after including the two patients who did not complete this level (by assigning them predicted scores); although in our post-hoc analysis we observed that removing these patients resulted in this significant finding reducing into a statistical trend, the effect sizes for our post-hoc model (f 2 = 0.36) still indicate a large effect for the relationship between both variables 52 .

(3) Results: Greater alcohol use was prospectively associated with decreased frontal pole volume in participants with a mood disorder, but not typically developing comparison participants (time-by-group-by-alcohol interaction; p = 0.007); however, this interaction became a statistical trend in a sensitivity analysis excluding one outlier in terms of alcohol use.

Considering the otorhinolaryngological evaluation of the infants from the groups, there was a statistical trend from group I to have more infants with normal otoscopic evaluation and group II with more infants with changes found upon otoscopy.

A statistical trend towards higher estimated glomerular filtration rates was observed in the arrhythmia groups (79 mL/min in both groups vs. 65 mL/min).

Results Increased cellular presence in soft-tissue specimens Haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining of soft-tissue specimens collected during surgery revealed a marked increase in cell count ( Figure 1 ): at the time of prosthesis removal, there was a statistical trend to elevated cell counts at 316.2 cells per mm 2 (SEM 49.81 (95% CI 212.0 to 420.5)) compared to the control group at 166.4 cells per mm 2 (SEM 30.22 (95% CI 102.9 to 229.9); p = 0.140, Kruskal-Wallis test).

fMRI results SVC using the reward anticipation mask in the three-way interaction SVC analysis revealed a significant three-way interaction in the right NAcc [4 consecutive voxels, peak (15, 8, −14), t = 3.28, P SVC-FWE = 0.017; Figure 2A ], and there was a statistical trend in the left NAcc [peak (−15, 11, −11), t = 2.88, P SVC-FWE = 0.051].

The association between the SNPs of the donor and the biopsy score blindly assigned by pathologists to the grafts revealed a statistical trend towards higher scores (more tissue damage) in biopsies from carriers of the CYP2C8*3 variant.
