GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / Clinical research
Spanish term or phrase: cambios globales
The term appears in a description of findings from a research study, and the effects of different products on electrolyte levels: 'Aunque los *cambios globales* de la calcemia no fueron estadísticamente significativos ....'

Can I say "overall changes" for this? I don't think that 'global changes' is appropriate here. Thanks to everybody!

agree  JaneTranslates: Sounds good to me, in this context. I tend to use "global" in sociology, and in language. Not medicine, generally. For what it's worth.
