As shown in Table 2 , there was a highly significant difference between different types of DV and husband’s alcohol consumption.

The rate of AIDS detection has decreased in Brazil in recent years in the Southeast, South, and Midwest regions, while in the North and Northeast regions, they have shown an increasing trend in detection [ 2 ].

This issue is particularly relevant in some Asian countries where universal health coverage does not yet exist, or there may be significant gaps between the cost of health services and the government funded component and the cost of health care may be high relative to incomes [ 46 , 47 ].

Multiple studies have suggested an increasing trend in opioid prescribing over the recent years [ 21 , 22 ], but little is known about the actual opioid administration among older adults [ 7 , 19 , 23 ].

5 b, where Rajshahi are the districts with prevalence increasing during all the survey years, and many districts in the middle-north show an increasing trend from 2007 to 2011 then become stable from 2011 to 2014.

Only very few districts show a decreasing trend.

The significant or highly significant level was set when |Z| > 1.96 or |Z| > 2.58.

There is clear and growing evidence linking the indiscriminate use of antibiotics within small- and large-scale agriculture to the development of antibiotic resistant microbes [ 67 – 69 ], and there is an increasing trend in the use of antibiotics for growth promotion and prophylaxis in commercial agriculture across LMICs.

Each year there is an increasing trend toward obesity in Indonesia [ 31 ].

Conclusion PE prevalence has an increasing trend throughout the years 2013–2017 while prevalence in females is higher than males and displays a higher increasing trend.

Second, all demographic and health characteristics that were marginally significant in univariate analysis were taken into account as covariates.

This positive association between health index and wage is highly significant for each group of workers.

A positive effect of the intervention was defined as presenting length-for-age with a positive trend suggestive of an approach to the appropriate growth trajectory or presenting a L/A compatible with being in the normal growth trajectory .

Family relationships Quality of the relationships, neglect, maltreatment and violence None of the variables in this subgroup reached significance after Bonferroni’s corrections – some of them reached only a nominally significant difference, considering the average age of onset of crack-cocaine use between groups.

Notwithstanding the decrease of R 0 t , there was an increasing trend on February 9 which corresponded to the time when migrants returned to study or work.

The publishing date of the studies displays a clear trend.

Both excess weight and depressive symptoms are more prevalent in people with higher socioeconomic income, found in the 4th quartile, while high blood pressure and diabetes are more prevalent among individuals of lower socioeconomic levels, with the highest being those in the 1st quartile. When observing the relationship between the four factors being studied and academic level reported by the surveyed Mexican population, a decreasing trend becomes evident for three of the factors (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure and depressive symptoms), Fig. 4 , from lower to higher level of studies.

Average steps per day ANOVA for steps per day indicated that the higher-order interaction was marginally non-significant, although both two-way interactions (lockdown × nation and lockdown × age group) reached significance (Table 1 ; Fig. 2 a, b).

Both of these behaviors showed a positive trend when comparing the pre-test to both-follow-ups (Table 1 ).

Notably, our studied population was very small, and it is possible that we did not reach significance for the behaviors that approached significance due to under-powering.

There were a handful of behaviors that approached significant change across timepoints; namely, “Covered every electrical outlet” and “Installed more than two smoke detectors”.

Thus, as it was previously shown that PM 2.5 is associated with an increasing risk for respiratory infectious diseases [ 16 ], the present situation with the spread of COVID-19 demonstrates an increasing trend.

Among the newly detected HIV infections and patients each year, the number of HIV infections and patients among students showed an increasing trend year by year, accounting for 1.64% of the total cases reported from January to June in 2011, up from 0.96% in 2006 [ 9 ].

The rates of hearing of nPEP services (48.6%), awareness of nPEP knowledge (16.5%), and acceptance of nPEP services (2.4%) among the college students, showed a trend of gradual decline.

The simulated values based on NDGM showed an increasing trend for future.
