Under the same experimental conditions (temperature and solution pH), the four typical antibiotics exhibited a decreasing trend—sulfisoxazole (100%) > sulfamethoxazole (98%) ≈ sulfathiazole (97%) > sulfamethizole (81%)—during the oxidation of PS/PMS (Zhou et al., 2019 ) (see Table 2 ).

In addition, there was a decreasing trend in the number of cases of acute exacerbations of COPD advanced due to PM 2.5 exposure. 77 Although air pollution has decreased, air quality has not yet reached the standards set by the WHO.

Positive and significant values of APC indicate an increasing trend; negative and significant as a decreasing trend, and non-significant trends as stable, regardless of APC values [ 13 , 14 ].

The spatial extent of cultivated land showed a decreasing trend from 2001 to 2003, and a growth trend which slowed down after 2010.

In contrast to medium-treated cells, cell viability in virus-treated cells showed a decreasing trend over the course of infection with rVSVΔm51.

The absorption peak of MRBCs at 1618 cm −1 showed a decreasing trend from 300 to 600 °C [ 38 ].

There was a decreasing trend in the daily MME and days’ supply of opioid prescriptions over the study period.

The non-agricultural employment ratio was the leading factor for increasing FUE, and its degree of influence showed a decreasing trend from eastern to western China.

Furthermore, every 5% increase in transboundary water resources has a decreasing trend, which shows that although increasing water diversion quantity from transboundary river basins was conducive to socio-economic development, the utilization efficiency of water resources of transboundary river basins decreased.

Previous studies that approached SmO 2 using other NIRS positioned in the vastus lateralis during a dynamic maximum knee extension exercise obtained results that were very similar to those obtained in this study, revealing that the knee extension exercise caused a slight increase in this variable and then a decreasing trend according to all the publications consulted [ 19 , 35 , 36 , 37 ].

In the Weber-B group, increasing trends for TFCS and MCS and a decreasing trend for TFO were observed.

It is noticeable that there is a decreasing trend of % of crystallinity in nanocomposites with higher (more than 5.0 wt%) filler contents.

The prevalence rate showed a decreasing trend upon comparison of studies conducted before and after 2000.

It was monitored regularly, which followed a decreasing trend with the improvement of the patient's clinical condition.

2A , the viability of the hypoxic cells exhibited a decreasing trend after 3 h of reoxygenation and remained relatively low until 24 h after reoxygenation.

In short, we could hypothesize that the MTHFR C677T allele is a risk factor for the thinning of CT of MDD patients in the left cACC, ISTC, mOFC, and PCC; the C677T homozygote is a protective factor for increased lOFC CT and also allows the volume of the putamen to manifest a decreasing trend in depression.
