Excerpts

Although there are variations in trends and risk factors of suicide among countries in the southeast Asia region, compared to Western countries, the region as whole has higher suicide rates, lower gender (male-to-female) suicide rate gap, higher rates among the elderly, and an increasing trend of youth suicides [ 5 , 7 ].

From the results of EESI, it can be found that the level of ecological security in Wuhan showed an increasing trend as a whole after it dropped from 2006 to 2008.

Both TVOC and VOC concentrations showed a decreasing trend during this period.

However, two of the three electrodes located over S1 (involved with tactile perception) show a modulated mu-rhythm with increased MF flux density (CP3 and CP5, and tendency approaching significance for CP1), but this was not confirmed by post-hoc pairwise comparisons.

This also explains why the GFI value for the whole database is very close to significance levels but not significant: the variance of the Visibility of railway track may not be sufficient to warrant the introduction of this variable in a significant model.

The EEA competition index ranged from 0.255 to 0.277 and there was a decreasing trend after 2016.

On the other hand, based on the compared results, a positive trend is evident among patients who, empowered by the accessible information in relation to nutritional effects on health, have become much more cooperative and prepared for a partnership with their GPs with the goal of improving one’s own health.

In a study of 250 benzene-exposed workers and 140 unexposed controls, single-nucleotide polymorphisms in genes ( BLM , TP53 , RAD51 , WDR79 , and WRN ) that play a critical role in DNA repair and genomic maintenance were associated with highly significant reductions in the white blood cell count among benzene-exposed workers but not controls [ 4 ].

Our results indicate that when the population is disaggregated by age and gender, the southern area exhibits only minor and less significant hotspots of older males, yet highly significant hot spots of MI in younger males occur in the industrial eastern communities, home to working class families, characterized by lower socioeconomic status, and higher industrial pollution.

Although the impact of hot weather on mortality is generally largest in urban environments [ 63 ], it may be significant also in rural areas [ 62 , 64 ].

[ 54 ], but the reproducibility in own study was observed to be higher (Bland-Altman index of 2.7%), while the validity was stated to be borderline significant (Bland-Altman index of 5.3%).

In addition, the crude rate of patients who underwent PC in the GP maintained an increasing trend during the observation period ( Figure 2 ).

For those intervals that showed a significant or marginally non-significant difference, a series of a posteriori, multiple-comparison (pair-wise) tests were run to identify those bins that were significantly different.

For example, the effect of quantitative workload on emotional exhaustion over time might be significant in a larger sample.

None of the regression results were highly significant for the core explanatory variable, namely environment dissatisfaction, indicating that governments seldom invested in water pollution governance in response to public opinion.

There is a highly significant correlation between engaging in aggressive behaviors in school and engaging in psychological cyberbullying.

Nevertheless, an increasing trend of groundwater overexploitation and deterioration at both the regional and global scales, mainly due to anthropogenic activities, has recently been demonstrated [ 1 , 2 , 3 ].

On the one hand, different variables may be significant in models using variables derived with different contextual areas.

Similar underreporting of Roma ethnicity was observed in younger age groups with borderline significance ( Table 2 ). 3.2.

Similarly, the dynamics of P and K showed an increasing trend over the period of composting due to mineralization.

The OC content of compost samples showed a decreasing trend.

Afterwards, the technical standard SBM, Standard of Building Biology 2015, by the Baubiologie Institute of Germany IBN [ 14 ] is adopted and interpreted as a guide for the risk prevention of exposure to geomagnetic field variability expressed in nanoteslas (nT), distinguishing four degrees of possible effects on human beings: Non-significant values 0–100 Weakly significant 100–200 Strongly significant 200–1000 Extremely significant +1000 nT For the analysed dosimetry, we set values close to 1 μT (1000 nT), since it requires immediate and rigorous action based on the precautionary principle.

Global adherence to Group 3 procedures was also better when the team included over 6 caregivers, although a U-shaped relationship appeared, with a nearly significant difference.

However, an obvious trend can nonetheless be seen.

From this is can be concluded that there exists an increasing trend between 1981 and 2014, however, it is not significant for most physicochemical parameters.
