“an increasing trend”

Supplementary eFigure 9 (Supplemental Digital Content 2, http://links.lww.com/JS9/D483 ) demonstrates an increasing trend in the number of lymph node metastases with higher mpT stages (mpT1: 3.0±3.6 nodes, mpT2: 6.9±8.9 nodes, mpT3: 9.2±9.2 nodes, P <0.05), suggesting that mpT staging can differentiate the number of lymph node metastases.

TPC Phenolic compounds generally have a positive correlation with antioxidant activities due to their electron-donating capability during free radical reactions, and results have shown an increasing trend with increasing concentrations ( p < 0.05) ( Table 3 ).

Additionally, the LF-EA group exhibited an increasing trend in spleen index ( P > 0.05), whereas the HF-EA group showed a significant increase in spleen index compared to the LF-EA group ( P < 0.01).

With the extension of storage time, the size of collagen liposomes showed an increasing trend (P<0.05).

MDA levels also showed an increasing trend in the CTX group ( P > 0.05).

Although its concentration exhibited an increasing trend with exercise intensity, no statistically significant differences were observed among the three groups ( Table 2 , P > 0.05).

Temporal trends From 1999 to 2020, the AAMR for hyperthyroidism with HF as a contributing cause initially showed an increasing trend from 1999 to 2001, with an annual percentage change (APC) of 25.95% (p < 0.05).

Conversely, as the year of publication increased, the prevalence showed an increasing trend (P < 0.05).

As the grade level increased, the VA ( F = 89.332, p < 0.05) and SE ( F = 103.709, p < 0.05) showed a decreasing trend, whereas BMI showed an increasing trend ( F = 33.240, p < 0.05) (Table 2 and Figure 1 ).

Compared with that in the control group, the proliferative activity of lymphocytes in the NKP-1339 group showed an increasing trend, whereas the cell proliferation index in the NKP-1339-NBs+US group was higher than that in the NKP-1339+US and N-NBs+US groups ( P < 0.05, Fig. 5 A and B).

As shown in Figure 2 C,D, both the tested strains showed an increasing trend in inner cell membrane permeability (ICMP) (1.11-fold and 1.13-fold), after being treated with Rm EE-F2 (1 × MIC) for 6 h ( p < 0.05).

Horizontally, SBD showed an increasing trend from the eastern to western sections ( P < 0.05) (Fig. 2 ).

Results Baseline Characteristics Compared with the healthy control group, although there was no statistical difference, the average age of T2DM patients had an increasing trend (p > 0.05), the levels of SBP, DBP, BMI, waist circumference, FPG, TC and TG were increased (P < 0.05), and the levels of HDL-C, serum adiponectin and salivary adiponectin were significantly decreased (P < 0.05).

The prevalence of the double burden of malnutrition in the semi-arid region exceeded 20%, with an increasing trend among children aged 7 to 9 years (APC = 0.61%; p < 0.05).

Additionally, the percentage of lean meat exhibited an increasing trend with higher dietary β/AX and AV (0.10 > p ≥ 0.05).

Compared with the control group TNF-α (1.11 ± 0.42); Compared with IL-6 (1.1 ± 0.49), TNF in lymphocytes of hypertensive patients-α (1.42 ± 0.72); The expression of IL-6 (1.48 ± 0.68) gene showed an increasing trend in the hypertensive patient group, with no statistical significance ( P > .05) (Fig. 3 ). 3.3.

Although T-AOC and CAT levels showed an increasing trend in the YPF- p groups, the differences were not statistically significant ( p > 0.05). 3.3.

For FXR, a significant increase was observed in the UDCA and high-dose physcion groups, whereas the low-dose physcion group showed only an increasing trend without statistical significance ( P > 0.05).

Age-standardized DALYs were on the rise during 1990–2003 but declined during 2003–2013, with a turning point in 2013 and an increasing trend since then [ the Annual Percentage Change ( APC ) = 0.30%, p < 0.05].

Total acid showed an increasing trend during the first four weeks, followed by stabilization or slight decline, with no significant differences between packaging types ( p > 0.05).
