With respect to trending ability, our findings were in agreement with other studies dealing with uncalibrated pulse contour analysis [ 27].
With respect to trending ability, a recent published investigation demonstrated poor trending for the new semi-invasive monitoring system in patients undergoing off-pump cardiac surgery [ 16].
Company data such as return on assets and return on equity are analyzed with respect to trends in their own performance and relative to industry averages.
With respect to trends for type 1 and type 2 diabetes among pregnant women, no other studies, to our knowledge, have documented national trends in pregestational diabetes, which we observed to increase throughout the length of the study period.
Given the close link between the prevalence of undernutrition and per capita food availability, it is not surprising to find that the pattern with respect to trends in per capita food availability is similar to that discussed above for trends in the prevalence of undernutrition (Table 8).
We first examined a simple linear model with respect to trends in BLL over time, and compared our results with a linear plus quadratic model, which resulted in a modest increase of the predictive capability, measured using the R coefficient of determination.
Normalized curves for these results were in complete agreement with respect to the trend in inclination.
Defining the growth rate of output as: ( overset{y}= d ln y/ d t ), both sides of equation (1) are taken logs of and then partially differentiated with respect to the trend variable t.
There were no significant differences between groups with respect to time trend.
Notwithstanding these limitations, the stabilization of delayed memory performance, although with worse immediate memory, with respect to the trend of impairment in the control group should be underscored.
