Excerpts

In Miami, none of the racial/ethnic/nativity groups are significantly over- or under-represented in 100-year flood zones, although the result for non-Hispanic Whites approaches statistical significance for overrepresentation.

Results: There was an increasing trend observed in the reported cases of HIV/AIDS in Fujian Province.

The criteria for significance in the procedures was set at p < 0.05 (significant) and p < 0.01 (highly significant). 3.

Due to competition or cooperation, there may be significant relationships between pairs of hospitals, and between hospitals and pharmacies on a distance measure.

A recent study found there was a highly significant positive correlation between BMI and VI [ 19 ].

The esophageal cancer mortality rate has shown a decreasing trend from 1994 to 2002, preceding the mortality rate decline observed for oropharyngeal cancer (APC: −2.5 (95% CI, −4.1 to −0.8)).

The F -test is highly significant, thus, this implies that there is a linear relationship between the variables in the model. 4.

A novel finding of this study was the significant impact of the desks on children’s sitting patterns in the classroom (i.e., less time spent in long sitting bouts and higher frequency of sit-to-stand transitions compared to the controls) and a positive trend towards higher standing and stepping (i.e., LPA).

However, increased mortality (although marginally significant) was observed in the adjusted model (Model 2 aHR: 1.05; 95% CI: 1.00–1.10).

After adjustments for age and gender, borderline significant associations of the MTHFR C677T and MTRR A66G polymorphisms with T2D were observed under recessive (OR = 1.43, 95% CI: 0.98–2.10) and dominant (OR = 1.43, 95% CI: 1.00–2.06) models, respectively.

LogMEHP, logMEHHP and log∑5-DEHP increased the odds of leiomyoma after multiple logistic regression analysis with borderline significance, which is likely attributable to the small sample size.

No association was found between travel companionship and intent to purchase sexual services, though travelling alone (OR = 2.8) was somewhat significant.

While age was not associated with intent to engage a sex worker, relationship status (OR = 3.9) and prior experience with sex workers (OR = 17.7) were highly significant.

Introduction Despite a decreasing trend, the widespread use of psychoactive substances by young people continues.

Although the differences in perceived health risk between non-Hispanic White and Hispanic respondents became non-significant, the White–Black disparity remained highly significant even after considering the effects of exposure to industrial/vehicular air pollution risks and other socio-demographic factors that shape risk perception.

Our study did show marginally significant disparities in viral load suppression, with Black Latinos exhibiting increased odds of non–viral suppression.

As concerns the employment status, employees with a part-time permanent work and those with a full-time temporary work have a highly significant disadvantage in SHS compared to full-time permanent workers (odds ratios 0.878 ± 0.101 and 0.889 ± 0.094, respectively).

The effects of pollution, which may be significant, could not be considered due to data unavailability.

However, results are not always concordant, with studies reporting a negative trend in physical activity levels from summer to winter [ 37 ], while others reporting the inverse, a decrease in physical activity in summer compared to winter [ 38 ]; and regarding sedentariness, there is no conclusive evidence about its seasonal variation [ 37 ].

Composite Risk Scores While the overall RS showed a trend of increasing RS and increasing concentrations of TTC among all source types ( Figure 2 a), this was largely driven by source type ( Figure 2 b–d).

While we observed small changes in UVR over time, deviations in these satellite input parameters may either exaggerate this trend or render a significant trend negligible even though one exists.

Figure 3 shows the monthly bacillary dysentery incidence distribution of in Baise with a decreasing trend over the study period.

However, in our study the highly significant associations between higher bodyweight status and “having any spinal disease” suggests that the significant patterns between those specific conditions and bodyweight status are unlikely to be a mere statistical anomaly.

More specific questions on community knowledge of dengue epidemiology and vector bionomics would be a primary interest in Machala because of an increasing trend of Ae. aegypti -transmitted illnesses in this highly populated urban environment.

Also, having family present in Turkey and access to a regular source of care, while increasing the likelihood of use, were marginally significant.
