“a decreasing trend”

These values showed a decreasing trend over the next 3 days in both groups with no significant differences between the groups.

Although natural delivery is not always recommended as the best delivery method due to increase in C-section rate, its percentage has shown a decreasing trend during recent years.

Although we did not observe a significant effect of treatment (sc-514 or IRB) on the number of α/β cells, there was a decreasing trend of α/β cells compared with that in the Angll-treated db/db group.

The bench top stability studies undertaken at LQC and HQC levels for each analyte to study the influence of laboratory conditions demonstrated a decreasing trend in the levels of the analytes with time.

Islandiella norcrossi and Elphidium excavatum (27% and 20% relative abundance, respectively) showed a decreasing trend between the fjord head and the fjord mouth in terms of relative abundance.

Studies have shown a decreasing trend in infectious complications over the years due to better hygiene, CAPD training, and follow-up.

Furthermore, following the increase in HJURP expression, p21 expression exhibited a decreasing trend in SMMC-7721 cells (Fig. 5h ).

In addition, the ENSEMBL gene-annotation data revealed that, in general, the majority of genes in AMH genomes tend to have a low number of annotated transcript/splicing variants, with a decreasing trend between the proportion of genes and the number of transcripts (7.584 on average; mode: 1 transcript/gene).

However, there was generally a decreasing trend for the values of BET-specific surface area of P-DETA, C-EDA and P-EDA series with the increase of TEOS content.

We noticed a decreasing trend in suicide SMR over time, which is most notable for lung cancer compared to the other three cancers.

Unfortunately, some data indicated a decreasing trend in the proportion of patients who received rehabilitation utilization among inpatient drug/alcohol detoxifications (39% in 1992 vs. 21% in 1997) [ 11 ].

After gonadectomy, a decreasing trend in food intake was found in both wild-type and Mito-Ob mice (Fig. 1c, d ), implying regulation on satiety may be altered due to lack of sex steroids.

The productivity of coots showed a decreasing trend with later breeding dates; however, this trend was significantly supported in only the Longfeng wetland.

In general, virus load showed a decreasing trend in all organs/tissues from 9 to 15 days except the brain.

None of them showed significant changes at 3 h after treatment, although in some cases a decreasing trend was observed (Fig. 1 ).

Bacterial growth in two aliquots was monitored by taking OD values at 1 h interval consecutively for 10 h and phage-mediated lysis of cells was revealed by a decreasing trend of OD value at 600 nm.

Groups I, II and V showed a decreasing trend at the stage of seed development (Fig. 6b ).

56 In the present study, paraquat was the most frequently used pesticide, and a similar pattern was found in a study carried out in Northeast China, which showed an increasing trend, 57 whereas a decreasing trend was found in Korea. 58 Not surprisingly, our study found that alcohol poisoning was common and accounted for 20.7% of all poisoning cases.

Similarly, YS exhibits a decreasing trend along 45° and TD.

This behaviour is confirmed by the measurements of the hole diameters, which always show a decreasing trend of the measured values for 60 consecutive holes made with the same parameters and tools, as shown in Figure 10 .

A decreasing trend of fatal traffic accidents was observed over the study period for both the motorcycle user fatalities and other traffic injuries.

Meanwhile, the FDOM concentration in the SML ranged from 14.0 to 17.6 μg L −1 (average: 15.7 ± 1.0 μg L −1 , n = 2507) and showed a decreasing trend between 09:00 and 13:00 UTC.
