“…This could have been due to the less appealing difference in time zone for international attendees or possibly the need to travel and obtain adequate resources to participate virtually such as a computer or Internet facilities. 28 , 29 We also speculate a potential reason for this result could have also been due to misinterpretation of phrase-structure, mistaking “less appealing” for “less travel time” or “less cost”.…”

“…Registration increased 53% from 2020 to 2021, with a substantial increase in out-of-state registrants.
