Human error-related events in mining and manufacturing resulted in almost four times as many events with victims and almost three times as many events with evacuations compared with events in these industries where human error was not a contributing factor (10.3% versus 2.7% and 11.8% versus 4.5%, respectively).
Pairwise comparisons indicated that Ymf genes on average accumulated more nonsynonymous substitutions resulting in almost three times higher dn/ds ratios than KPC genes (0.48 vs. 0.17).
Mechanically dispersed oil induced expression changes in almost three times as many transcripts compared to chemically dispersed oil (fold change >+/−1.5).
Although the mortality rate has been declining, the incidence of sepsis has increased, resulting in almost three times the number of sepsis-related deaths in the USA between 1979 and 2000 [ 2].
The Uruguayan study 32 observed that the highest level of ALA intake derived from animal sources, which resulted in almost three times the risk of developing prostate cancer, and the Spanish study 45 revealed that the highest level of animal fat intake was associated with two times the risk.
Our incidence projections suggest the burden of disease for south Asians is likely to result in almost three times higher rates by 2020, assuming that the linear increase since 1990 continues and the age structure of the Yorkshire population remains the same over time.
Students in this study who attended a school with eight PA-related facilities on school grounds engaged in almost three times more PA during school recess compared with students attending a school with the lowest number of facilities [ 18]; however, gender differences were detected in the particular types of school PA-related facilities associated with student PA.
The prediction models showed that if current physician supply policy (enrollment and graduation at state medical faculties, and their deployment) is seen as adequate by policy makers and maintained at the same level, it will result each year in almost eight times the number of graduated physicians than the number of vacancies in the public healthcare sector.
Carbonization of the aforementioned polymeric spheres was accompanied by their activation, which resulted in almost five-time higher specific surface area and total pore volume, and almost four-time higher micropore volume as compared to analogous properties of the carbon sample prepared without the salt.
The prevalence of nephrolithiasis in Atlanta was almost two times greater than in Los Angeles, but the mean annual temperature of both Atlanta and Los Angeles was 17°C.
