Excerpts

Moreover, due to the small size of the tested group, when the value of p < 0.1, the calculation value was considered borderline significant. 3.

Two PA studies measured adherence rates [ 31 , 36 ], one of which showed a trend for those in the exergame group to be more likely to adhere to the program than an aerobic exercise group [ 36 ], the other showed no significant difference with 96% and 93% attendance for the VR group and the control group, respectively [ 31 ].

In addition, tourist characteristics and preferences are likely to be significant factors that affect inbound tourist numbers.

Rather, it showed a decreasing trend from 2011 to 2014, and then an increasing trend afterwards.

During this period, the relative length showed a decreasing trend from east and west to the middle ( Figure 2 a), and the relative lengths of Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Hainan in eastern China, and Heilongjiang in northeast of China were all > 1.25, indicating strong dynamics in their local spatial structure.

Although a tendency towards significance was found, the insomniacs reported a low PH orientation and low emotional stability.

As shown in Table 1 , the insomniacs significantly differed from the non-insomniacs for PN, PP, F, and DBTP (with a slight tendency toward significance for PH) when ZTPI was considered, and for CON and EX (with a slight tendency toward significance for ES), when BFI-10 was analyzed.

Migration of South-eastern European HCWs to other European countries is a worrying trend.

Conversely, this effect experienced an increasing trend when crude oil remained in its relatively high-volatility regime [ 27 ].

This is an unexpected trend as it does not align with previous observations for other years but could be due to increased tourism during those years or even increased use of cars, further investigations would need to be carried out to source the reason for this observation [ 55 ].

Subsequently, there was a decreasing trend, and the closeness of PM 2.5 among provinces also decreased with the vigorous implementation of collaborative management.

The Fe-P content showed a trend of first decreasing and then stable change, and the more acidic the soil, the greater the decrease of Fe-P.

We found that subjects who terminated the GXT due to muscle soreness in the legs tended to have a decreasing trend (negative coefficient of the regression line) of MF, and those who reported the reason of shortness of breath tended to have an increasing trend (positive coefficient) as the power increased.

Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes had the highest abundance in the soil of TC, while Actinobacteria and Acidobacteria showed a trend of increasing relative abundance with the succession of halophyte vegetation. 3.3.

Discussion Our study has demonstrated an increasing trend in the number of publications on PRF research in the last decade.

Results indicate that the PM 2.5 concentrations in most of the capital cities in the study experienced an increasing trend at a rate of 0.98 μg m −3 per year from 2000 to 2016.

In greenhouses, the heat stress may be significant because solar heat is trapped inside, and the application of heat reduction measures that do not interfere with crop growth is difficult.

Related to nausea, although there was a decreasing trend, in the last trimester almost half of women (48.06%) continued to experience nausea daily; moreover, 16.28% of them continued to have at least one episode of vomiting per day, during the last trimester of pregnancy.

The resulting time effect indicated a significant decrease in anxiety symptoms, while the time by group effect revealed a strong trend in depression symptoms.

In a nationwide Danish study comparing the effectiveness and safety of reduced-dose non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants and warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation, a reduced dose of apixaban was associated with a trend toward higher rates of ischemic stroke/systemic embolism compared to warfarin, while a reduced dose of rivaroxaban and dabigatran showed a trend towards lower thromboembolic rates.

Although these associations were not statistically significant [ 27 , 28 ], similar to our findings, there was a decreasing trend in the odds of MetS across lower AHGS.

Overall, heat measurements and heat-related symptoms were less likely to be significant predictors of most coping strategies than personal characteristics, building structures and location.

[ 63 ] found that CO 2 e had a decreasing trend for economic development while FDI showed an increasing trend for economic development in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh during 1971–2014.

On the whole, although the Cd content of the topsoil and subsoil in the rice–rape rotation fluctuated, it showed a decreasing trend from the harvesting stage of rape to the pre-planting stage of rice and from the filling stage of rice to the harvesting stage of rice. 3.2.2.

The results further elucidate the perception of the native respondents on the potential possibilities of UGI, so it is worth noting that option 2 is extremely significant compared to option 14, which received 81% and 23% confidence votes from the participants.
