Dry ice accounts for about 20% of the CO 2 demand in the USA, with an increasing trend from home delivery of frozen foods [ 39 ].

In these studies, results range from insignificant effects, as shown by [ 22 ], to highly significant impacts, as shown by [ 8 ].

Pearson’s correlation analysis showed a highly significant positive correlation between these parameters (r = 0.83).

There were clearly significant differences between the groups of women, with less and more physical activity in all the parameters assessed.

Second, in Item 5, the pre-post measurement effect was also highly significant and went into the expected direction in all groups.

Model simulations indicated that the resulting increase in water surface temperature was observed in the range of ~0.5 to ~1.5 °C for the majority of the lake regions, while a decreasing trend can be found in the catchment river inlets adjacent to the lake shoreline, with a maximum of around −2.0 °C ( Figure 10 a).

(2) The results of the global–spatial autocorrelation analysis and local–spatial autocorrelation analysis documented that the spatial agglomeration degree in the MRYRUA has shown a positive trend since 2010. “High–High” and “Low–High” agglomeration regions spread from the east to the south; in particular, Qianjiang has consistently been a “Low–Low” agglomeration area, while Yichun changed from “Low–High” to “High–High”.

The results indicate that the coupling coordination degree of the EETT system transitioned from the uncoordinated period to the coordinated period, while it showed an increasing trend on the whole from 1995 to 2017.

Traffic and economic problems caused by the aging of the population and the shortage of public transportation may be significant reasons for restricted economic development. 5.4.

The coefficients of the models are presented in Table 3 and show that all the coefficients related to seasonality were highly significant, together with the life expectancy of the population.

Statistical Methods To check the results of the self-report survey and discuss which factor might be significant for the wayfinding time of firefighters in the DCEs, descriptive statistics were obtained with t -tests and multiple regressions were performed to check for differences in wayfinding times within the 13 factors.

Effect of Supplementation on Magnesium Status The increase in urinary Mg following supplementation approached significance ( Table 3 ).

Despite an increasing trend of elders being cared for in long-term care facilities in Africa [ 87 ], especially in South Africa [ 88 ], this is still far less commonly practiced than in Western countries, Asia [ 89 ], or Latin America [ 90 , 91 ]. 2.3.

The most notable associations with significant statistical significance ( p < 0.001) were those observed between neuromuscular variables such as time to run 10 m (T10; r = −0.629) and jump (CMJ; r = 0.502) and the number of accelerations; aerobic fitness showed a highly significant relationship with meters run per minute (M/M; r = 0.589).

In summary, one high powered study did not find differential subscale effects; another higher-powered study found only borderline significant effects in the same direction as the present study. 4.2.

Although the results that the regression model of state-anxiety for Lviv State University of Physical Culture did not reach the required significance level, all of the predictors were close to being significant.

S-anxiety model of Lviv State University of Physical Culture and t-anxiety model of National Academy of the National Guard of Ukraine had worse fit (R = 0.14 and 0.17), but p values of its predictors were close to significance level.

Significant differences were found between the clusters for all compositional variables except for complex geometric shapes (S2), perception of space-to-ground contact (G1) and weight (G2), and color range (C3), for which the differences were marginally significant.

Yet a marginally significant finding, Avoidant coping inversely predicted exercise ( Table 4 ). 4.

Both of them showed an increasing trend first, and then decreasing, followed by a small peak. 3.3.

The differences in HEI component scores for seafood and plant proteins for the two categories of HEI were not statistically significant in survey 1 or 2, but were trending towards significance.

Highly significant differences in Se levels were found between the populations with participants from the rural Indian Ocean sites presenting with lower Se levels.

Significant positive correlations were found between maternal Se concentrations and maternal Zn levels in the total and male cohorts, with a marginal significance level also observed in the female cohort.

Although temporal distribution of annual concentrations appeared to indicate an increasing trend in TSS concentrations, a significant increase and decrease in the flood and the drought years, respectively, were not always observed, and maximum annual concentrations were observed in the years that were in the normal precipitation group.

BOD and COD demonstrated monotonically increasing trends with Sen’s slope of 0.02 and 0.01, respectively, while Chl- a manifested a decreasing trend (slope = −0.23).
