“a weak trend”

For example, while the quality of night sleep remained the same at 79% efficiency ± 14 and 15, respectively ( p = 0.47), there was a weak trend and small effect towards a 10% decrease in the average frequency of awakening episodes, from 8 to 7 times nightly, ES = 0.23, p = 0.18.

The correlation between the reaction time and the MEP change did not reach a statistical significance despite a weak trend remaining ( R 2 = 0.09, P = 0.18).

From these data, we can see that there is a weak trend toward higher PE‐related mortality ( p = 0.183) in the group without cancer than in patients with cancer.

Performance in this task and reading competence showed a weak trend of positive correlation ( r = 0.24, p = 0.19).

When applying a cluster based randomization test including all sensors, there was a weak trend (55–65 Hz, 0.0–3.0 s, p = 0.19).

Even though there was a weak trend for association of the insulin-desensitizing minor A-allele of FNDC5 SNP rs726344 with higher FNDC5 mRNA contents (p = 0.19), this SNP’s MAF was too low to allow a reliable evaluation (only four heterozygous and no homozygous carriers of the minor allele were present among the myotube donors).

0.87±0.24 in CC/CG p = 0.87), even if a weak trend was observed in patients <50 years (0.79±0.21 in GG vs. 0.72±0.19 in CC/CG, p = 0.19) ( Figure 1C ).

There was no significant association between postoperative AKI and the type of intervention, although a weak trend might be observed (SAVR 13.9% versus TAVR 2.8%, p = 0.1987).

Acute Mtln-KO mitochondria showed additional signs of ROS-induced membrane damage, with lipidomics data indicating a weak trend towards increases in monolysocardiolipin (MLCL 18:2_18:2_18:2, P < 0.2), and notably, follow-up auxiliary analyses revealed that MLCL/CL ratios are significantly increased by ∼20% in acute Mtln-cKO samples ( Figure 5 F , P = 0.015, representing the ‘top hit’, most significant P -value in this lipidomics dataset).

A weak trend ( p < 0.2) was found for a possible causal association between LRI and MDD in both analyses. 3.3.2.

Only a weak trend in this direction was observed in the European American group [F(5,22) = 1.7, p < .20].

There was a weak trend toward a group difference in MVPA (DF = 1, F =1.59, p = 0.207) whereby MVPA was lower among Intervention girls at age 11 years (36.0 vs 41.6 mins/day) which was not sustained at age 12 years.

There was a weak trend towards decreasing operation time over the study period (r = -0.289; p = 0.216).

If we find that those elite sprinters with the best times also have the most symmetrical knees, is it because those with symmetrical knees do well in advance or is it that intensive training leads to both success and more symmetrical knees? Of course it is likely that cause and effect go in both directions, and there is a weak trend toward decreased knee FA with age in the athletes (r = −0.15, p = 0.22).

For length of hospital stay, significance was only reached in the combined studies (−1.57 days, 95% CI −2.48 to −0.66, p < 0.0001) but there was only a weak trend when compared to ONS (−1.06 days, 95% CI −2.76 to 0.63, p = 0.22).

However, the pattern of assembly completeness exhibited only a weak trend ( Supplementary Figure S1D , PCC = 0.66, P value = 0.2285).

There was a weak trend for an inverse association between cumulative PET scores and time to clinical flare (1.50 (IQR 0.0–7.6) versus 0.0 (IQR 0.0–3.8), p = 0.23, respectively; results not shown).

A correlation analysis revealed a weak trend towards a relationship between the outcome score and the patient's age at the time of surgery (p = 0.249, r = 0.2).

However, end-diastolic dimensions were not significantly increased, despite a weak trend (p = 0.25, n = 5), implying no cardiac dilatation ( Fig. 1 G).

In normal tissue samples from tumor proximity (n = 30), a high stromal CD66b+ cell density was a negative prognostic factor ( p = 0.037) ( Figure 2 C), while in normal tissue from the periphery of resected tissue, only a weak trend towards worse prognosis was observed ( p = 0.250) ( Figure 2 D).

A single risk allele did not achieve statistical significance but showed a weak trend toward starting HD earlier (coefficient −2.96, P = 0.255, 95% CI: −8.09 to 2.15).

However, a weak trend was noted in women, with elevated albumin levels showing a potential protective effect against cognitive impairment (OR: .72, 95%CI: .41−1.28, P = .262).

When we consider only the 24 rapidly evolving sites, we find a weak trend (p = 0.27) towards enrichment within epitope rich regions (odds ratio: 1.6).

Isolated islets from these older mice showed reduced GSIS in response to 20 mM glucose (G20), although their basal insulin secretion under 2.8 mM glucose (G2.8) only displayed a weak trend of reduction ( p = 0.27) ( Fig. 1 D ).

Specifically, there was a weak trend toward a lower percentage of lymphocytes in the BAL of treatment group ( P = .2888), but no significant differences were found in the percentage counts of neutrophils and monocytes ( P = .776, P = .664, respectively).
