Excerpts

Hierarchical conceptual modelling analysis confirmed the highly significant association between caries and race/ethnicity.

p values ≤0.05 were considered highly significant and p values between 0.05 and 0.1 were considered less significant.

Only a marginally significant negative direct effect was found of community on burnout (b1), but the effect of trust on burnout (b2) was significant and negative.

P -values for pairwise comparisons were calculated with the unpaired Student’s t test and denoted as not significant (more than 0.05), significant (0.05 or less), very significant (0.01 or less), or highly significant (0.001 or less).

Studies in Asia, Europe, and North America have identified an average ASD prevalence of 1.5% in their populations and have projected an increasing trend [ 2 ].

An increasing trend between medical facility and death was observed, with more complicated cases in medical centers having the highest risk.

The sensitivity analysis supports the lack of consistent and meaningfully significant associations.

Person-centred healthcare has emerged as a significant trend in healthcare development over the past three decades, emphasising the treatment of individuals following a holistic care approach and encouraging their active participation in healthcare decisions [ 38 , 39 ].

Correlations between subsequent durations were smaller compared to Data Set I, but still highly significant, as shown in Fig 1e and 1f .

To summarize, for Data Set I, lag 1 correlation was significantly larger than 0, and for Data Set II, one of the two types of lag 1 correlation was significantly larger than 0, while the second type was borderline significant, and seemed to be affected by the subject random factor.

However, analyses revealed a positive trend that did not reach statistical significance for either pCR or tpCR.

For Italy extrapolation of a clear trend is rather hard due to a very noisy behavior, again accountable to internal heterogeneities.

Colony counts varied significantly from device—to—device, though overall no significant difference was apparent in the number of CFUs compared to the in-tube positive control.

While there was a trend toward an association between high baseline HE4 and increased subsequent development of brain metastases (p = 0.07), such a biomarker cannot be recommended for clinical use without independent validation of a highly significant association.

The visual data reveals a clear trend: as the binding coefficient increases, the rate of sodium diffusion significantly slows down, and the diffusion depth is substantially reduced.

Multiple t-test revealed that the five NILs showed highly significant difference in SF.

Process measures A positive trend for men and women <75 years of age was observed for all process measures with a temporary decrease in 2003 and 2006 for most variables ( Fig 1 and Table 2 ).

The number of patients with a systolic blood pressure (SBP) >140 mmHg decreased from 70.1% to 42.0% in men, and from 80.2% to 40.3% in women (p for trend in both sexes <0.001), whereby a small trend difference between sexes was observed due to the difference in the first years (p for interaction <0.001).

The long-term impacts of koala overbrowsing on the ecosystem are poorly understood but also likely to be significant.

However, it is approaching significance, suggesting a potential but not definitive indication of publication bias.

These changes trigger a bottom-up effect on key biological traits of T evansi causing a highly significant increase of leaf damage and mite performance.

All variables show highly significant associations with CM, which increased with age; decreased with flock size; was highest in flocks of intact beaked birds and organic flocks; and varied with both housing system and breed.

Considering published studies, time-to-publication showed a decreasing trend over the years.

Glycosaminoglycans carry densely packed negative charges and as a result there may be significant osmotic shifts associated with compression, leading to stiffening.

We found that the progression pattern was not an independent prognostic indicator, although there was a trend toward significance for some patterns.
