A decreasing trend in this parameter was observed basally ( Supplementary Fig. 2A, B, C ).

However, this outcome was reversed when applying high-frequency NMES, showing a decreasing trend ( Gondin et al., 2011 ).

When the discharge rate was maintained at 50 mA g −1 , the capacity exhibited a decreasing trend with an increasing rate.

This would imply that the increase must come from the electronic portion of thermal conductivity; yet, an estimation of the electronic thermal conductivity results in a decreasing trend with increasing temperature ( 3 , 26 , 27 , 30 ).

Nevertheless, a clinical investigation revealed significantly increased expression of PTEN along with a decreasing trend in the activation of Akt/eNOS in atrial biopsies of T2D patients compared to healthy individuals.

The average winter concentrations of PM 2.5 were 1.0–1.3, 1.4–3.0, and 1.5–2.7 times those of other seasons in 2013–2014 (autumn 2013 to summer 2014), 2015–2016 (autumn to summer), and 2018–2019 (winter to autumn), respectively. Meanwhile, it showed a decreasing trend for the seasonal concentrations of PM 2.5 in the same period.

A decreasing trend in mortality is observed as the PTS score increases.

In June and July, when quarantine restrictions in the northern hemisphere started to ease [ 76 ], we observed a decreasing trend in the selected COVID-19 specific listings, which continued until November.

Most of the fortified (both single and dual-fortified) samples had significantly different PA concentrations compared with the two controls, with a decreasing trend of PA concentration after fortification.

The results were not statistically significant, and only a decreasing trend was observed ( Fig. 4E ).

The microbial diversity index of the biotin-stimulated samples showed a decreasing trend, with S4 (with 1.0 mg/L biotin) showing the lowest diversity.

From the statistical data, it is found that the temporary regulations, implementation plans, opinions, and other government documents promulgated in 2018 and 2019, in combination with the circulars and announcements issued by the Sichuan Provincial Government and its committees, bureau and offices, all show a decreasing trend.

Results The birth rate of infants from mothers with syphilis was 2.8 per 10,000 live births for 5 years, which is not indicative of a decreasing trend.

Some wards showed evidence of a decreasing trend in falls over time, for example Cluster 16 (Ward 30, Respiratory) showed a 11% reduction in falls per month following the intervention (IRR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.82 to 0.97).

Surprisingly, the total methylation levels of EjGIF1 promoter in triploid showed a decreasing trend compared with the mid-parent value (MPV), and this was also consistent with the qRT-PCR results of EjGIF1 .

Additionally, Akt activation with TGFβ2 across various timepoints showed an increasing trend up until 24 h, and a decreasing trend until 14 d, where the P-Akt to Akt ratio is significantly lower compared to 24 h (Fig.

Comparison of participants according to educational background showed a decreasing trend in compliance with mask-wearing behaviours in those with middle school or below education background compared with those in participants with high school diploma, college, or graduate degree (ORs= 0.73 [95% CI=0.61–0.89, p =0.000], 0.47 [95% CI=0.39–0.57, p =0.000], and 0.37 [95% CI=0.30–0.46], p =0.000, respectively).

As seen in Figure 1 , primary TKAs and primary THAs saw a decreasing trend by about 20% from the beginning of January through the first 2 weeks of March.

The study also showed a decreasing trend in meningitis incidence and cases fatality rate in the region for the 10-year period.

SOD-expression levels showed a decreasing trend in the CIH+BLE group when compared with those in other groups.

There was a decreasing trend in relative prostate weights in the interim males, although without a significant pairwise comparison, a similar response was not observed in terminal (parental) males.

With regard to age, HDL-C levels showed a decreasing trend as age increased (p-trend = 0.015; Table 2 ).

The highest Asc level in sycamore cotyledons was observed at the dry seed stage, and a decreasing trend was detected up to the germinated stage.

A recent study that examined the short- and long-term effects of GDP on traffic deaths in 18 OECD countries in 1960–2011 found that although cyclical periods of strong economic growth led to an immediate increase in traffic deaths, since the mid-1970s this short-term effect has been outweighed by a much stronger protective long-term effect with a decreasing trend observed in death rates 26 .
