“an observed trend”

An observed trend was the frequent use of the extreme value ‘nine’ in pairwise comparisons, potentially violating one of the core AHP axioms, which posits that no criterion should be infinitely more important than another.

There was also an observed trend of more cases in children in the recent period.

7 Nevertheless, implementation efforts continue, with an observed trend of digital tools entering clinical practice through less formal routes, such as living labs and pilots. 8 9 Some pilots may result in system-scale adoption, but their results are rarely published in the literature.

As HA spheroids showed significantly enhanced lipolytic activity compared to MA, which was only an observed trend in 2D culture, this may suggest that 3D spheroid culture of adipocytes are a more suitable method of generating HA.

The first is that both isolates carry the avirulence gene AlAvr1‐1 , thus continuing an observed trend of resistance in Indianhead and descendants to resist Pathotype 1 isolates more strongly than Pathotype 2 (Henares et al., 2022 ; Sudheesh et al., 2016 ).

Current short-term kidney allograft survival rates are favorable, and there is an observed trend of improvement in long-term outcomes [ 2 ].

Our study did not identify a significant association between its occurrence and overall survival, despite an observed trend toward a higher median OS I in patients with eosinophilia.

Moreover, an observed trend in the CBA playoffs indicates a preference for offensive gameplay over defensive strategies, with the importance of offensive metrics such as 2P%, 3P%, and eFG% increasing.

When GPR was analyzed as a categorical variable, there was an observed trend of increasing odds ratio values from the first to the fourth quartile.

As for gender comparisons, the results showed that men are the users who get more distracted ( M = 4.91; SD = 1.86), compared to women ( M = 4.73; SD = 1.67), although the mean difference (ANOVA: F (1,1062) = 2.333; p = 0.127; Welch: F (1,944.907) = 2.447; p = 0.118) is not statistically significant at level p <0.05, and for that reason this data should be interpreted only as an observed trend.

However, it is worth noting that there has been an observed trend of declining applieddoses of vaccines in Brazil over the past 2 decades [ 8 ], especially those immunobiologicals recommended during early childhood [ 27 , 28 ].

There was an observed trend towards higher survival in the more recent TAVR cohorts.

In Thailand, vaccination against dengue is approved, and dengue is holoendemic in the country, with an observed trend of large outbreaks occurring every 4 years.

Relationship between factor consumption (u/kg/year) and age is shown in Figure 2 with an observed trend towards decreasing overall factor utilization with age, particularly in the on-demand group.

Results Analyses indicate that while rs907091 and rs1143770 may have potential associations with MetS susceptibility and an increased risk of atherosclerosis and diabetes, there is an observed trend suggesting that the rs1333045 CC genotype may be associated with a decreased risk of MetS.

Considering the misinformation campaign that specifically targets Reef and water quality science [ 98 ] and an observed trend of declining trust in the region’s science and management institutions [ 107 ], further research that deconstructs this misinformation could be explored in controlled laboratory experiments, manipulating trust factors that are known to be important.

Although there is an observed trend toward enhanced survival following creatine supplementation, these studies distinguished between large differences (30–50% difference).

Although there was an observed trend towards lower basal respiration and mitochondrial ATP production rate under physioxic conditions, these differences were not statistically significant.

Significant improvements in functional ability and QoL were reported in “De-novo” and in “L-dopa” (treatment-refractory tremor) cohorts following the first injection, with an observed trend of tremor reduction being on average 14.1% greater in the “L-dopa” cohort over the treatment course (weeks 6–42).

An observed trend towards heavier δ 34 S py documented throughout the Sheepbed Formation has been interpreted to represent pore water sulphate limitation (Johnston et al., 2012 ).

The level of confidence in an observed trend neither implies nor excludes the possibility of changes in this extreme on regional scales.

There was an observed trend towards a longer mOS in patients who switched from VEN + HMA to a VEN + HMA + IDHi triplet rather than a subsequent IDHi doublet or monotherapy (Supplemental Fig. 6 ).

There was an observed trend towards reduced fat mass in the first 6 weeks post-CRT implant driven by non-responders.

KCC has been mostly applied in cases where the observable used to provide the constraint is one or more observed time series ( 25 , 34 , 35 , 59 ), while HEC has been predominantly used when the constraint is obtained via a scalar observable, such as an observed trend ( 18 , 31 , 32 ).

Additionally, while PPS has the potential to reduce inpatient LOS, there is an observed trend where healthcare providers might reallocate services from inpatient to outpatient settings.
