“a decreasing trend”

Interestingly, however, the LRIG1 mRNA levels showed a decreasing trend ( P = 0.00547, Jonckheere-Terpstra test) with increasing tumor grade, i.e., from GS (Gleason Score) 6 to GS9 tumors (Supplementary Fig. 13a ).

The annual positive isolation rate ranged from 12.7% (2018) to 28.4% (2010), with a decreasing trend ( p = 0.0058).

The intra-laboratory %CVs presented a decreasing trend with increasing insulin concentration (ANOVA: P =0.0059; 202111 vs. 202113 P =0.0255; 202111 vs. 202115 P =0.0063); however, no distinct trend was observed for C-peptide (ANOVA: P =0.702) ( Fig. 1 ).

The time between U gait and U crit – hereafter classified as ‘time spent bursting’ (TSB) – revealed a decreasing trend with temperature ( P =0.0059), with no apparent P CO 2 effect ( P =0.8760).

Meanwhile, there was a decreasing trend in in-hospital mortality across COVID-19 waves ( p = 0.006) ( Fig. 3 B).

The mean male to female incidence rate ratio was 1.28 (95% CI = 1.26–1.30, range = 1.15–1.41), with a decreasing trend during the study period ( r = −0.47, p = 0.006; Figure 1 ).

A decreasing trend for FGIDs was observed with increasing level of education (83.7%, 66.9%, 59.3%, P value = 0.006).

Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics were well balanced between the SCDM-DHM group and the control group ( p > 0.05), with no statistically significant differences observed in terms of maternal age, birth weight, gestational age, number of males, delivery mode, SGA status, or length of hospital stay; a decreasing trend in the number of single births was observed in the SCDM-DHM group ( p = 0.006).

A decreasing trend in all CCS categories was observed among patients undergoing CABG, while in the PCI group, the trend remained stable for all CCS categories until 2009, and then it showed an increasing trend for low‐risk CCSs of 1 to 2 (APC, 3.1; P =0.006).

Our generalized estimating equations analysis revealed a decreasing trend in volume, fitting a quadratic function ( p = 0.006).

The trend of overall DBP over time was also significantly different between the groups, and a decreasing trend was observed in the RIC group (F = 3·078, P = 0·006, group-by-time interaction).

Trends relating to the total amount of methadone prescribed remained stable, but a decreasing trend in the number of prescriptions (2.4%; RR = 0.976, 95% CI 0.959–0.993, p = 0.006) and an increasing trend in the quantity prescribed per prescription (2.8%; RR = 1.028, 95% CI 1.013–1.042, p < 0.001) was observed post-lockdown.

The RR of twins for stillbirth, compared with singletons, was 3.27 overall, ranging from RR = 5.7 in 2012 to RR = 2.5 in 2021, with an upward trend in the period 1957-1988 (APC = 1.2, 95% CI: 0.7 to 1.8, p < 0.001), a stabilization during 1988-2012, and a decreasing trend in the period 2012-2021 (APC = -4.8, 95% CI: -8.0 to -1.4, p = 0.006) (Figures 7 - 9 , Tables 1 , 3 ).
