Excerpts

In a multivariate model, being an only child showed a highly significant association with BMI-SDS.

Current estimates identify an increasing trend to 2018 [ 2 ].

The state has one of the highest maternal mortality rates within the US, with 37.2 maternal deaths per 100,000 births in 2016 –a significant trend increasing since 2008 [ 1 ].

Although these and our results were statistically highly significant, the mean difference of 1–2 PCR cycles is low.

However, since the effect sizes were very small (eta squared for the Alpha VOC = .029 and the clinical setting = .004), there was only a slight trend towards higher viral loads of the Alpha VOC compared to wtV.

An increasing trend in macrolide sales was observed in 2018 (1653 kilograms) and 2019 (1944 kilograms) in the U.S.

In line with our previous results, multivariable analysis showed a trend towards higher antibody levels in stunted compared with non-stunted children (regression coefficient 0.92, 95% CI -0.015–1.85, Table 3 ).

However, the SPRDSS in some provinces have not formed the dissipative structure, but their discriminant values are on a decreasing trend.

In western China, the discriminant values showed an increasing trend as a whole, but the values of some provinces show relatively slow growth.

Similarly, we found a positive trend of the PPKAY being effective at reducing alcohol-related harms.

However, diagnostic and prescription errors may be significant sources of iatrogenic damages, worsening the patients’ illnesses resulting in more complex health care resources that may require hospitalization [ 7 ].

It was found that there was a highly significant correlation (r 2 = 0.960) between the values for haemolymph L-lactate obtained using the two methods.

Overall, our data suggest that even in a relatively small plot area (about two ha), site-specific variability may be significant and should be taken into consideration for sampling procedures and characterization of leaf traits under field conditions. 4.2 Ozone-induced VFS in Viburnum lantana are associated with thicker leaves and higher frequency of trichomes with a significant within-plant x environment effect The tropospheric ozone concentrations observed in Trentino for 2020 were in line with those causing VFS in V . lantana [ 19 ].

Although there are no obvious changes in most conch parameters at septum 13, the change in δ 13 C appears to coincide with the onset of a decreasing trend of WER ( Fig 6E and 6F ).

While the female exhibits a stable WWI after a conch diameter of 80 mm, the male shows an increasing trend.

et al found an increasing trend in clinical trial protocol complexity across phase I, II and III clinical trials based on 9373 protocols of which 76% were protocols provided by large companies [ 3 ].

The results suggest that the decay parameters are highly significant for both models.

Results All the COVID-19-related search terms in Iran gained their highest popularity value (relative search volume = 100) in the first 8 weeks of the pandemic, and then this value assumed a decreasing trend over time.

Furthermore, while this study reported statistically significant findings, they may not be considered "practically significant." Therefore, it is essential to interpret the results correctly when applying them to practice.

The number of weekly new cases of COVID-19, from 16 February 2020 to 2 January 2021, in Iran, based on official statistics, has an increasing trend ( Fig 2 ).

============================== ACADEMIC EDITOR: Among points raised by reviewers the following should be especially addressed: Please describe better patient selection (“convenience sample” is not sufficient) and give an estimate of exclusion rate Describe better among-group differences of HF mortality risk (the highly significant difference are not apparent from data in table 1) Include a supplementary analysis regarding the difference between older and younger patients and briefly discuss the reason of the lack of prognostic meaning of age and the similar prevalence of delirium between groups, both unexpected Among limitations, you should include the lack of information regarding functional status (frailty and/or disability).

the first stage F -statistic is substantially below the required rule-of-thumb of 10) and the estimate is only marginally statistically significant.

Because the variable presence of a visible or non-visible disability was marginally significant, it was also included in subsequent analyses.

At the same time, PM 2.5 levels did not show an increasing trend nationwide, resulting in apparent spatial heterogeneity; thus, we need to analyze the domestic tourism flows and PM 2.5 from the perspective of spatial heterogeneity.

On the contrary, the domestic tourism flow in some individual cities has shown a decreasing trend, especially in Suihua City.
