Excerpts

There was an increasing trend of delivery in private HFs with higher odds of childbirth in provinces with better socioeconomic development indicators (e.g., Koshi and Bagmati, and provinces that cover the Terai region, such as Madhesh and Lumbini), and among relatively privileged women with single or no marginalization.

The coefficients obtained were positive and highly significant, consistent with the ordered probit results, indicating that higher Mandarin proficiency is associated with higher subjective class identity.

Highly significant differences in the AEII numbers were seen between 3 day old pups and adults ( Fig 4b ).

The blood glucose level in the GTT test showed a trend of first rising and then decreasing, and the peak value of blood glucose appeared around 30 min and then decreased.

Despite a decreasing trend in global incidence and mortality over the past few years, cervical cancer continues to be a troubling outcome of persistent high-risk HPV transmission in Sub-Saharan Africa [ 5 , 6 ].

Treated groups show a clear trend of enhanced therapeutic efficacy, with greater swelling reduction (ranging from 2.0 to 2.5 mm) and improved weight-bearing capacity (25–30%).

The notion that this was a positive trend was also shared by the younger participants in our study.

In most countries with SDI value between 0.2 and 0.6, the disease burden of endometriosis showed a trend of annual improvement, with the ‘effective difference’ between them and the boundary gradually decreasing ( Fig 3A ).

The effect sizes in these relationships ranged from medium to large, suggesting these findings are practically significant and meaningfully worth evaluating.

Introduction Driven by digitalization and mobile internet technology, live-streaming sales have emerged as a significant trend in the e-commerce industry [ 1 ].

This trend was echoed in the significantly higher species richness at deeper depths for experimental substrates, which was also driven by a highly significant difference in wood substrates between depths (higher richness at deeper depths).

However, very small or miniature tracks are rare in the fossil record; thus, their occurrence in the Carreras Pampa tracksite is highly significant.

The rose diagram indicates a strong trend toward the SSE (120°–180°), with a minor component toward the NNW (330°–350°).

Fig 5f presents the most important finding of this study: the strong positive correlation between weaving complexity (DR + MR) and Shannon entropy (r = 0.909, p = 0.005), which is a statistically highly significant result.

The significance test results (t = −2.112, p = 0.088) are at a marginally significant level, but the practical difference is notable.

A further comparison of the scores between same identity and different identities resulted in a p-value of < 0.001, indicating a highly significant difference between these groups.

With regard to Sex × Tobacco Interaction, Both Female × Tobacco Yes (Estimate = −2.4021) and Male × Tobacco Yes (Estimate = −2.2772) are highly significant and negative, indicating a substantially lower likelihood of tobacco use among both sexes, with females slightly less likely than males to be in the tobacco-use category.

The Cragg-Doland under-identification test rejects the null of under-identification, with a chi-square value of 45.72, which is highly significant.

The fact that the hazard ratios for G4 remained highly significant and even increased after this adjustment strongly supports the notion that the SII-PNI score provides unique prognostic information beyond its individual parts.

In convenience evaluations, household registration (OR = 2.1028) and education (OR = 1.1821) remain dominant positive predictors, while maternal political affiliation approaches marginal significance with a substantial negative effect (OR = 0.6003).

The 2001–2023 period can be divided into four typical stages according to the dynamic variations in the ANPSP loads: (1) 2001–2006: Agricultural Expansion with Accelerated pollutant discharge The total ANPSP loads showed an increasing trend over this period.

Both the Chinese and global population-based ASMR were predicted to show a decreasing trend in 2022–2036, with the Chinese male and female ASMR decreased from 0.88/100,000 and 0.68/100,000 in 2022 to 0.82/100,000 and 0.56/100,000 in 2036, respectively, and the global male and female ASMR decreased from 0.78/100,000 and 0.45/100,000 in 2022 to 0.67/100,000 and 0.39/100,000 in 2036 ( Fig 4

In 2022–2036, the ASIR of the Chinese population showed an increasing trend, with the male and female ASIR increasing from 79.94/100,000 and 63.35/100,000 in 2022–984,734.59/100,000 and 1,007,157.09/100,000 in 2036, respectively; and the global ASIR showed an increasing trend, with the male and female ASIR increased from 97.89/100,000 and 59.13/100,000 in 2022 to 173.16/10

The triple burden of malnutrition, defined as the coexistence of overnutrition, undernutrition and micronutrient deficiencies within the same community, is an increasing trend among adolescents in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) [ 5 ].

This not only highlights a positive trend toward preventive behavior among farmers but also reinforces the quality and reliability of the self-reported data, as the pattern aligns with the higher exposure risks identified in this group.
