Although the agreement format explained more in interpersonal deviance, the total explained variance was only marginally significant.

Comparing the association between social loneliness and mental HR-QoL [std-β: −1.84; 95%-CI: −2.27 to −1.41] with that between social loneliness and physical HR-QoL [std-β: −0.95; 95%-CI: −1.44 to −0.45] reached borderline significance.

Non-sewerage interventions that achieved very high coverage (above 90%) did have a marginally significant effect on diarrhea (we were unable to use a separate 75% threshold for non-sewerage studies because no study reached coverage between 75% and 90%).

In the 20 to 40 cm soil layer, the soil INV activity showed an increasing trend with the prolongation of growth period, and the C0, C20, and C40 treatments were significantly different at the milk stage ( p < 0.05).

Paddy soil exhibits a high level of organic carbon content, an evident trend of carbon sequestration, and a great potential for carbon fixation, which is an important part of the construction of soil carbon sequestration capacity to reduce greenhouse gas emission.

Non-creatinine-corrected results for pooled (men and women) and female participants were also similar and/or slightly attenuated, though MiBP was not significantly higher in pooled nail care workers compared to NHANES Asian Americans, and only marginally significant when the analysis was restricted to female participants ( Table 4 ).

However, the influence of weight disappeared when TEE was expressed as physical activity level (PAL, derived as TEE/basal metabolic rate (BMR)), while height and age remained highly significant predictors.

33.3%, respectively) ( p = 0.262), suggesting a positive trend.

However, in a system with the existence of electrostatic repulsive, the adsorption capacity may show an increasing trend with the increase of ionic strength [ 64 ].

An increasing trend in outpatient consultations was recorded between 2013 and 2018, with an increase in confirmed malaria cases from 2016 onwards.

The influence on red blood cell parameters was shown as a dose-related decreasing trend of RBC and MCH, and an increasing trend of MCV, MCH and RET% in treated groups of both genders, with statistical significance in medium-dose and high-dose group versus the control group ( p < 0.05).

In the period 2001–2018, though an increasing trend was found, less than half of the population was sufficiently active.

Overall, a positive trend was found from 39.9% adherence in 2001 to 46.0% in 2018.

The saturation indices of calcite, dolomite, halite, and gypsum show an increasing trend with increasing TDS concentrations, illustrating the major involvement of the dissolution of carbonates and evaporates.

Our findings confirmed that bath (−22.14%) was highly significant in clarification of differences in SAH; educational attainment (−14.40%), sleeping time (18.04%) and medical scheme (−11.19%) were highly significant in explanation of differences in chronic disease condition. 4.

This relationship may be significant in the development of osteoporosis, because V can substitute for Ca in hydroxyapatite crystals [ 33 ].

The total PA was found to be inversely associated with weight retentions; however, the associations were only marginally statistically significant.

Although the change (increase or decrease) in the performance was not quite significant as compared with the performances achieved through the whole feature set, the number of features was significantly reduced from 561 to 150 using the CFS approach (over 70% reduction in several features).

Few studies have been concerned with examining the variability among day surgeries from a regional perspective and revealing factors that may be significant in the insufficient progression of day surgery in a country [ 2 , 3 , 4 ].

The cohort 1910 to 1935 showed a rising trend of random cohort effects in MRs; additionally, a decreasing trend of random effects was reported in the overall cohort (1910 to 1970), suggesting that the early cohorts were positively associated with MRs due to breast cancer (see Figure S2, Supplementary Materials ).

We observed an increasing trend of coefficient in the random effect of age from 50 to 80 years, which suggested that older ages were positively associated with MRs from breast cancer, and a higher random effect of years was observed in 2010 and 2015.

Our findings are consistent with data from the National Survey on Physical Growth and Development of Children (NSPGDC) in nine cities in China [ 17 ], which also showed declining trends in child stunting, underweight, and wasting for children under five years, and an increasing trend in the prevalence of overweight from 1985 to 2015.

In the study area, the dominant source of Ca 2+ provided by gypsum and anhydrite dissolution and that of Na + provided by the dissolution of the Na 2 SO 4 minerals mirabilite and the nardite can be deduced from the highly significant correlations between Ca 2+ versus SO 4 2− and Na + versus SO 4 2− ( Table 3 ).

In addition, TBARS concentrations showed a close-to-significant relationship with increased endometriosis risk [OR 1.6; 95%CI 1.0–2.8], and classification by TBARS concentration tertile revealed that the association between endometriosis risk and concentrations of BPA [OR 2.0; 95%CI 1.0–4.1] and Σbisphenols [OR 2.2; 95%CI 1.0–4.6] was only statistically significant for women in the highest TBARS tertile (>4.23 μM).

When participants were classified by tertiles of BPA and Σbisphenol concentrations, a significantly increased risk was observed for the women in the second versus first tertile [OR 3.7; 95%CI 1.3–10.3 and OR 5.4; 95%CI 1.9–15.6, respectively] ( Figure 1 ), although a significant trend was not observed ( p -trend > 0.100).
