“a decreasing trend”

To extend this observation, we binned cells into categories based on the level of Wolbachia infection and found a decreasing trend in the level of translation in cells as Wolbachia infection level increased ( Fig 7D ).

Total fatality rate (TFR) showed a decreasing trend in overall industry and manufacturing industry, while the construction industry represented fluctuating trend ( Fig. 1A ).

In the present study, the rate of high-grade embryos was lower in patients with EMs than in controls; furthermore, there was a decreasing trend in the implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate, but this trend did not reach statistical significance.

It is observed that the oxygen distribution at the beginning of the path has the highest value and goes through a decreasing trend along flow channel due to participation in the chemical reaction and consumption.

The measures of horizontal activity in this study composing total distance travelled, number of crossing squares, maximum distance travelled, and the mean velocity, it is showed a significant increase in CSD rats, and a decreasing trend after inhalation treatment without statistical significance.

Accordingly, a decreasing trend was not found in the average IC 50 values during 2016–2018 (Jonckheere–Terpstrata test).

We also observed an increasing overall case notification trend in Oromia and a decreasing trend in Amhara.

Annual herbs fluctuated over time, whereas perennial herbs, shrubs and trees always exhibited a decreasing trend ( Fig 3A ).

The risk level at the initial moment is the highest, and with the effective defense of the defender, the risk level shows a decreasing trend.

Even if P is increased to 100, the performance shows a decreasing trend for all models.

Based on the calibration data plotted in Figure 7 as black dots, we observed that, when the solution quantity is less than 80 mg, the threads show a decreasing trend in measured voltage consistent with the increasing solution quantity.

Conclusion The magnitude of maternal mortality is considerably high but has shown a decreasing trend.

OTUs affiliated with Cyanobacteria only differed among sampling sites in the FL fraction, with a decreasing trend of two OTUs of the genera Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus , respectively, from CoI to RoR and BoC.

We observed however, a significant increase in intracellular lactate and a decreasing trend in glucose uptake only under Db-cAMP-treated conditions and not for Br-cAMP ( Fig 2G ).

In contrast, the two risk factors showed a decreasing trend similar to that of incidence ( Table 4 ).

Although new seed-images were continually supplemented throughout the evolution process, we found that the diversity of the “images” showed a decreasing trend (Figs 2 , S1 ).

For SEQC-NB, a consistent correlation emerges between classifiers’ performance and INSS stage, as shown in Fig 5 , reporting the percentage of correct classification during the DAP training: samples with INSS stage 1 are better classified than samples in different stages, with a decreasing trend for increasing disease severity; samples with INSS 4 result the hardest to classify.

The color rating fell within the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Nigeria Industrial Standard (NIS) acceptable limit of 15 and with the exception of water sample 3, showed a decreasing trend as the distance from the waste dumpsite increased ( Figure 8 ). 19 , 20 For turbidity, all the samples showed higher values (5.91 – 10.33 nephelometric turbidity unit) than the standard threshold of 5 ( Table 2 ).

A decreasing trend was observed for ammonia levels in treatment ponds.

Assuming additive time series with trend and seasonal components, analyses indicate a decreasing trend of HR and SCR over the task and show a repetitive seasonal pattern across “subtasks” within each trial.

We found a decreasing trend in HRQoL with the progress of CRC, consistent with those reported in Australia and some European countries. 26 39–41 However, CK Wong and colleagues reported worse HRQoL in patients with stage II CRC compared with those in stage III and IV. 18 Patients with CRC undergoing surgical procedures often have lower HRQoL. 26 42 Our study provides additional evidence for this conclusion.

At the family level, abundance of bacteria belonging to the Desulfovibrionaceae , Deferribacteraceae , and Porphyromonadaceae was significantly increased in response to HFD feeding compared with NC feeding, while Fuc treatment resulted in a decreasing trend in the bacterial levels compared with those in the HFD group (Fig. 5 j–l).

Likewise, another Australian study by Kelly and colleagues [ 32 ] reported a decreasing trend for food and beverages decreased over the three-year period; from 26% in 2006 and 25% in 2007 to 15% in 2008.

In this population-based prospective study, we observed an upward trend in the incidence of first-ever stroke among a rural elderly population in China; however, the proportion of older stroke patients in the overall stroke population showed a decreasing trend.

Discussion Over the 10 years since our model was first developed, there has been a decreasing trend in deer harvest, requiring the recalibration of our model.
