All three curves showed a trend from a steep increase to a slow increase, and in the place where the comprehensive suitability index of human settlements was 0.623, the cumulative speed of the three curves slowed down, indicating that the concentration of population and economy in the area with a high comprehensive suitability for human settlements was relatively small; that is, 0.64% of the land held 4.96% of the population and 7% of the economy.

AQI showed an increasing trend from south to north.

Moreover, the negative coefficients presented a decreasing trend, suggesting that rapid urbanization may impair GTFP improvement.

The carbon emissions of 16 cities in the core of the YRD UA have also exhibited fluctuating upward trends over the past decade, with as many as 13 cities presenting a decreasing trend in carbon emissions in 2019 as compared to 2018.

According to the statistical analysis, the water-related variables are highly significant, with positive coefficients.

Associations between Single PCB Congener Groups or Organochlorine Pesticide Exposures and Cognition Single pollutant regressions showed significant and negative associations only for HCB and DDE, but negative associations for HCB were barely significant ( Table 3 ).

A systematic review of 29 articles showed a trend of positive outcome associated with physiotherapy in motor-type FND.

To select the best influence mechanism model, OLS, GWR, and MGWR were performed on the station accessibility and residual factors in turn, showing that the fitting R2 of the three models shows an increasing trend, and the AICc value shows a decreasing trend, and the difference is higher than three, indicating that the models have obvious differences [ 36 ] ( Table 6 ).

The newly imposed policies have long-term and short-term effects, which may be significant [ 19 ].

(2) The national and regional GUEIL showed a trend of increasing, slightly decreasing, and then increasing again.

According to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the average value of the national MA index was 0.89 during the study period, with an overall trend of a slight decrease, followed by a slight increase.

In 2012, IER showed a decreasing trend, from the coastal areas of Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang, and Fujian as the core to the periphery ( Figure 1 c).

The migraine patients presented significantly greater anxiety symptoms (BSI-18) and nearly statistically significant levels of anxiety (STAI-trait) compared to participants without migraine, regardless of TMD, although no significant differences were found in state anxiety.

Compared with most countries, men exhibited a decreasing trend, but the decreasing trend was greater in Taiwan.

From 1986 to 2017, the lung carcinoma age-adjusted incidence rate of both sexes in Taiwan showed an increasing trend, with that of males and females increasing from 22.5 to 43.5 and from 9.5 to 31.6, respectively, per 100,000 population [ 4 ].

Notably, there was a clear trend of increasing TI values in climate-sensitive regions, such as Northeast China and the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau, in June and September.

Regarding self-perception of health status (SF-36v2), both summary scores show, in general, highly significant correlations with the UCLA GIT 2.0 dimensions.

The presence of C mainly comes from the decomposition of oil residues and retained organic matter in spent bleaching earth during the pyrolysis process, and whose content exhibited an increasing trend under the higher pyrolysis temperature due to the enrichment effect.

In general, Class I area shows a decreasing trend year by year.

In the five periods from 2000 to 2019, the Class II area is 1,250,600 hm 2 , 1,234,600 hm 2 , 1,618,900 hm 2 , 1,811,900 hm 2 , and 1,584,600 hm 2 respectively, accounting for 33.21%, 33.32%, 43.97%, 50.65%, and 48.67% of the total cultivated land area ( Table 5 ) and showing an increasing trend year by year.

The area of Class I cultivated land shows a negative trend between 2005 and 2010, declining by 593,900 hm 2 .

The global Moran’s I values in the five periods are all greater than 0, and through the significance test of the 5% confidence level, the overall shows a fluctuating upward trend, indicating that there is a significant spatial positive autocorrelation in the health index in each grid of the two lake plains, and that its spatial distribution was not random, there is an obvious trend of agglomeration and distribution of adjacent grids in space.

In the AD system, OLR ranged from 2 to 4 gTS/(Lreactor·d), and the average methane production rate showed a decreasing trend, from 202.35 and 260.25 to 118.70 mL/gVS and 202.36 mL/gVS, respectively.

[ 15 ] found a clear trend of increasing initial emission rate and decay rate of paints with increasing temperature, but the total emissions is generally consistent; this means that the baking of paints before use could accelerate the emission of pollutants.

During 2010–2015, the regions where the risk decreased obviously showed a trend of gradual diffusion from the middle to the four sides, and the regions with rapid decline appeared in western Shandong, central Henan, and southern Qinghai ( Figure 8 d).
