“a decreasing trend”

Recent estimates from modelling studies have shown a decreasing trend in active HCV prevalence in the general population: 0.2% in 2019 [ 19 ] and 0.1% in 2022 [ 20 ] reflecting the large number of people treated with DAAs [ 21 ].

In contrast, eGDR exhibited a decreasing trend in CVD and heart disease risk, followed by a plateau, and a more linear decrease in stroke risk.

As shown in Figures 1 C and 1D, at a fixed alkali charge, an increase of sodium carbonate proportion led to overall increases in unscreened cellulose-based pulp yield, Kappa number, and viscosity, while brightness exhibited a decreasing trend.

However, at 10 h starvation after the cesarean delivery, the amino acids concentration in the livers and brains of coro1c −/− neonates was significantly lower than that of control neonates ( Figure 7D ); additionally, the amino-acid concentration showed a decreasing trend in the plasma of coro1c −/− neonates ( Figure S7F ).

Despite a decreasing trend in the frequency of cold waves in recent decades [ 3 , 4 ], the occurrence of extreme cold wave events remains a serious concern [ 5 , 6 ].

Clinical follow-up of patients in Manaus indicates that the AVs are effective in reversing venom-induced coagulopathy 26 , with no pyrogenic reactions and a decreasing trend in early allergic reactions: i) 19.8% from 2004-2007 63 ; ii) 11.8% from 2014 to 2016 64 ; and 5.9% in 2023-2024 65 .

Root volume reached its peak at 5 μM and then showed a decreasing trend with increasing IAA concentrations.

The proportion of B cells showed a decreasing trend across the three PBMC groups, from 9.0% in the HC group, through 7.8% in the PD-Early group, to 6.1% in the PD-Late group ( Figure 2A ).

In addition, Axin2 expression also showed a decreasing trend in the si-POC1A group.

Conversely, the beta band SMN-DAN (importance score 1.8402) exhibits a decreasing trend within the 0.2–0.6 range, suggesting that stronger SMN-DAN connectivity may suppress the model’s positive prediction bias.

In contrast, node overlap exhibits a decreasing trend—networks with highly overlapping feedback structures tend to show lower overall activation.

The positive rates of common ragweed and mugwort pollen‐sIgE exhibited a decreasing trend from 2020 to 2024, yet rebounded in 2025.

In addition, there was a decreasing trend in the proportion of people who received their first antidementia drug prescription from a GP during the entire study period.

VISIA Image Analysis The Red Areas for both the combination and IPL‐alone sides exhibited a decreasing trend as the treatment progressed.

At the in vitro level, Figure shows that PM 2.5 did not affect PI3K p110α subunit protein levels, but PI3K p110β, p-AKT (ser473), and p-GSK-3β (s9) protein levels tended to increase with increasing PM 2.5 concentration, and p-GSK-3β (Tyr216) protein expression showed a decreasing trend.
