However, this result is heavily based on estimates from Australia (six of eight studies) which show a decreasing trend in appropriateness between 2010–2018.

Thus, though we did not detect an overall trend in antibiotic use in LTCFs, this does not preclude changes in antibiotic use rates within regions and countries over time, which our analysis was not powered to detect.

All levels of the respective attributes were statistically highly significant.

With the development of blueberry fruits and the enhancement of light intensity, the activities of PAL, CHI, DFR and UFGT in blueberry fruits in this study showed an increasing trend, which was consistent with the change trend of anthocyanin content in blueberry fruits, and there was a significant or extremely significantly positive correlation between the activities of the four enzymes and anthocyanin content.

In addition; increasing the cutoff point will keep the marginally significant variables.

In addition, the resistance of several major Gram-negative bacilli to piperacillin/tazobactam, cefoperazone/sulbactam, meropenem and imipenem all showed an increasing trend.

A possibly significant effect was only seen in one experiment on one measure (reduction of RMS power in the treated group).

There is an increasing trend in applying decision trees to time series, so this is a timely contribution (pun intended).

Compared with fresh mulberry fruit, the content of mulberry fruit showed a decreasing trend after different drying treatments, but the retention of these components by vacuum freeze-drying was better than that by hot air drying, which may be because hot air drying would promote the Maillard reaction and Strecker degradation reaction of amino acids in mulberry fruit, resulting in the loss of amino acids [ 34 ].

In targeted gene-wise tests of 42 genes associated with EOC in previous genetic, epigenetic, and transcriptomic studies in blood, four genes were nominally significant among the metastatic cases in the present study.

Conclusions Our results showed a trend of lower activation in the muscles of athletes relative to nonathletes; however, these differences mostly were not significant.

Nevertheless, if meanEMG PCSA values of the anterior, middle, and posterior deltoids are combined, the resulting value is higher than other muscles’ meanEMG PCSA during rotary quern grinding; thus, the deltoid may be significant for rotary quern grinding as well.

Please also be careful about the use of the term "marginally significant".

Overlap of cultivation site likelihood with species of concern The significant degree of overlap of predicted grow-site likelihood with modeled habitat of Pacific fisher, northern spotted owl, and Humboldt marten demonstrates there may be significant risks to these species from illegal cannabis cultivation, especially stemming from toxicant exposure.

With the introduction of the apps, if the download rate is 100%, the number of quarantined people spikes to 0.7% of the total population, which is nevertheless followed by a decreasing trend.

Statistical analysis of obtained results demonstrated that, RhoA, CTNNB1, and SPINK1 showed great potential to be used as biomarker for comparison of late-stage hepatic cirrhosis and early-stage HCC having cirrhotic background with a highly significant 3.34, 3.2 and 3.18-fold change while IFITM3 and SERPIND1 also gave significant results, both showing 2.24-fold change.

It shows that during the sample period from 2007 to 2020, the number of listed companies without an ultimate controller increased from 31 to 176, and the ratio of such companies to the total number of listed companies also increased from 3.07% to 5.64%, indicating an increasing trend annually.

Similar patterns were observed for EHR-documented COVID-19, with the exception of a marginally significant higher prevalence of COVID-19 in overweight women compared with normal/underweight women (adj-PR [95% CI]: 1.19 [1.03–1.37]).

This matched the mean size observed during line transect sampling (1.9 whales, SE = 0.17, CV = 0.09), in which group size appeared to be slightly higher in the central inner channels (Squally Channel mean = 2.04, SE = 0.17, CV = 0.08) than in outer channels (Caamaño Sound mean = 1.86, SE = 0.34, CV = 0.18), though this difference fell short of significance (S6 Table in S1 File ).

Although there was a decreasing trend for the colonic transit time in the CMS-Na 0.3 g kg -1 group, there was no significant difference in the colonic transit time between the CMS-Na 0.3 g kg -1 group and the normal group.

Despite a higher risk of having viral failure among same-day initiators, emerging evidence show an increasing trend in same-day ART enrollment in LIS [ 16 , 17 , 24 ].

However, an increasing trend of female consumption of alcohol is seen in comparison to 2019 STEPS survey factsheet which is more an urban phenomenon [ 7 ].

The concentrations of photosynthetic pigments exhibited an increasing trend in the ZnONP-treated seedlings.

Although the ratio shows a decreasing trend, they are still unacceptably high relative to the global target of 70 maternal deaths per 100,000 by 2030 [ 28 ].

Even though the carry-over effect is only marginally significant, we suggest a cautious interpretation of the treatment effect since the encouragement message did not affect students’ motivation before their second exam (0.101 + (-0.121) = -0.020, p = 0.703); the encouragement only affected students’ first exam and was not replicated in the second exam.
