Interestingly, between the IGR and nT2DM groups, the plasma asprosin concentrations showed an increasing trend in the IGR group ( P = 0.555), suggesting a correlation between plasma asprosin and glucose dysregulation.

Lung metastasis positivity rate As time goes on, the lung metastasis positivity rate showed an increasing trend in each group, there was no significant difference on day 7 ( P = 0.562).

Briefly, the peritoneal cavity M1/M2 ratios of the mice in the IPI‐549 ( p = 0.085) groups were greater than those in the control group, and moreover, there was an increasing trend in the IPI‐549+anti‐PD‐1 group ( p = 0.575) compared with those in the anti‐PD‐1 group, although the difference was not statistically significant.

5 ), with an increasing trend from 2016 to 2020 (APC = 9.3%, 95% CI: −30.9% to 72.9%, P = 0.5818, Table 5 ; Fig. 5 ) and a decreasing trend from 2020 to 2023 (APC = −38.1%, 95% CI: −70.0% to 27.9%, P = 0.1260, Table 5 ; Fig. 5 ), neither of which was statistically significant.

Compared to the NON-CYP + CYP substrate and NON-CYP + CYP inducer groups, epileptic brain tissues from the CYP substrate + CYP inducer group showed an increasing trend in levels of BAD ( p = 0.59 and 0.085, respectively), although not significant ( Figure 1B ).

Moreover, compared with E group, the proportion of Treg cells in A group was significantly increased (p<0.01), and the proportion of Treg cells in the B group had an increasing trend (p=0.59), indicating FMT maintained the proportion of Treg/Th17 cells in ETEC K88-infected mice.

An increasing trend was shown with respect to the intrahepatic metastasis from 6.7% (1 of 15) in the control group to 20.0% (3 of 15; P =0.598) in the TAE group, and lung metastatic rate from 53.3% (8 of 15) in the control group to 80.0% (12 of 15; P =0.245) in the TAE group.

The results showed that the LP + NMN group (5.50 ± 1.29) exhibited an increasing trend in litter size compared to the LP group (3.25 ± 2.50) ( p = 0.600, one-way ANOVA) ( Fig. 7 h and i).

Although an increasing trend is observed in the proportion of T1 tumor cells in the relapsed tumors, this difference is not significant (Wilcoxon’s P = 0.6, Fig. 8 a).

The prevalence of NAFLD demonstrated an increasing trend with advancing age (OR 1.049, P=0.607), and after adjustment for sex and metabolic features NAFLD tended to be inversely correlated with age (OR 0.844, 95% CI 0.667 to 1.068; P=0.157).

(2018) observed an increasing trend between advance age and occurrence of NAFLD ( OR = 1.049; p = 0.607), but after adjustment, age had an inverse relation with NAFLD in adult Chinese ( OR = 0.844; p = 0.157) [ 7 ].

There was an increasing trend, with a prevalence ratio over the years studied of 1.015 (95%CI: 0.96-1.07; p=0.61).

Total Procedure Time In total, six studies compared procedure time between normal weight and overweight or class I obesity and found an increasing trend in higher-BMI categories (normal weight vs. overweight patients, five studies with 2480 patients, SMD= 0.05, 95% CI: −0.15–0.26, p = 0.62, I 2 % = 74%, normal weight vs. class I obesity patients, five studies with 1750 patients, SMD = 0.10, 95% CI: −0.00–0.19, p = 0.06, I 2 % = 2%).

Although not statistically significant, there was an increasing trend in the rate of high-quality embryos in the GH group compared to the control group, with rates of 52.0% and 46.6%, respectively ( p = 0.622).

In the home-based exercise intervention groups, gait speed showed an increasing trend (MD = 0.03 m/s, 95 % CI: −0.10, 0.16, p = 0.66, I 2 = 0 %, Fig. 5 ) and times to complete the TUGT and chair stand test showed decreasing trends, but these trends were not statistically significant compared with the controls (MD = −1.15 s, 95 % CI: −2.58, 0.28, p = 0.11, I 2 = 0 %; MD = −0.06 s, 95 % CI: −0.45, 0.32, p = 0.74, I 2 = 0 %, respectively, Fig. 5 B and C, respectively).

The proportion of conventional risk factors, such as male sex and T3/4 primary tumor, had an increasing trend with age; however, the incidences of local node metastasis (N stage, p = 0.675) and distant metastasis (M stage, p = 0.056) were comparable among subgroups based on age.

Compared with the MSD-HSCT group, the auto-HSCT group showed an increasing trend in 3-year CIR (39.9 ± 11.1% vs 32.6 ± 11.2%, P=0.697) and a lower trend in 3-year OS (62.8 ± 11.4% vs 64.4 ± 12.2%, P=0.929).
