“a decreasing trend”

Table 1 shows a decreasing trend in the ratio which is expected in a functional therapy.

Results Effects of PPD and NAR on yield and composition of cotton Effects of PPD on biological yield, economic (seedcotton, lint) yield and harvest index With the increase of PPD (under the same NAR), biological yield increased significantly, and number of bolls per m 2 , seedcotton yield and lint yield showed an increasing trend, while harvest index decreased significantly, and boll weight, pre-frost yield rate also showed a decreasing trend ( Table 3 ).

The thickness has a seemingly increasing trend in younger phase [ 33 ], which follows by a decreasing trend ( Fig 3 ), but after adjusted by weight, we clearly showed the central corneal thickness has a decreasing trend by age.

Moreover, the plot of the node degree distribution showed a decreasing trend demonstrating that our network had scale free property indicating that it follows the role that “riches get richer” ( Supplementary Figure 2 ) [ 34 – 37 ].

Proportions with MIC 2 mg/L showed a decreasing trend.

In this study, the proportion of women with FGM was as high as 70% among studied participants in the previous years but it has seen a decreasing trend of FGM among young women in compare of old women and none of the study participants reported FGM on their daughters.

Halomonas had a high abundance in embryos and maternal hens, with a decreasing trend in chicks.

Each of the variables showed a decreasing trend with higher BMI ( Table 2 ). 3.

Although a decreasing trend of microbial diversity along gradients of increasing salinity has been observed ( Rodriguez-Valera et al., 1985 ; Benlloch et al., 2002 ), the results of our study showed that this was only evident for the total number of OTUs; the other diversity indices did not show a statistically significant negative relationship with salinity (data not shown).

Although overall there is a decreasing trend in incidence, the world is witnessing an increasing number of adenocarcinomas of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) in recent decades [ 4 , 5 ].

RT-PCR analysis revealed that the CYP3A4 mRNA level was dramatically increased in TAMR-MCF-7 cells compared to control MCF-7 cells, while CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 mRNA levels were only slightly enhanced, and the CYP2J2 mRNA level exhibited a decreasing trend (Figure 1A ).

15 33 This study showed an increasing trend in the prevalence of long-term sickness absence among female lower non-manuals, whereas a decreasing trend appeared in other occupational classes in both genders.

Thus, the measured T K values exhibit a decreasing trend for the adsorption of molecules on top, bridge and hollow sites on Au(111) surface.

However, the average absorbance intensity at 1533 cm −1 did not show a decreasing trend until 19 days after deposition.

Decorin and tenascin-C gene expression in tenocytes exhibited a decreasing trend with increased passages.

Additionally, it shows a decreasing trend in diffuse reflectance along with the increase of Pd loading.

[ 16 ] who found a decreasing trend during weekdays but increased weight during weekends.

The present study suggests that this trend persisted at least up to 2008 since map analysis detected a decreasing trend only in the last years analyzed.

The leveling out of the total PA concentration in the control samples post 12 hrs and a decreasing trend in the metal treated cells resulted in overall low PA presence in the metal treated cells as compared to controls in the 24 h time point.

who reported on a slight and non-significant increase of single- as well as multi-organ failure in multiple traumatised patients, the present study specifically focuses on polytraumatised patients with severe chest trauma and reveals a decreasing trend with regard to lung failure and circulatory impairment.

Moreover, the segmented regression revealed two significant trends in the winter and spring average TP concentrations, with a breaking point in 1992 when the increasing trend (1963–1991) reversed to a decreasing trend (1992–2015) ( Fig 3 ).

Although a decreasing trend from 7 to 18 years was reported by Nanda et al.

qRT-PCR analysis expression profiling of miRNAs and their targets The expression patterns of nine randomly selected miRNAs using qRT-PCR showed that most stamen miRNAs exhibited a decreasing trend after high-temperature treatment except for miR164a-5p, which was significantly increased at 2 d after high-temperature treatment (Fig. 8 ).

Trends in Incidence Rates According to Timing of CS The overall proportion of residents of the Worcester metropolitan area who were hospitalized for AMI at all central MA medical centers who developed CS was 5.2%; there was a slightly increasing trend in the frequency of CS in this population between 2001–2003 (5.1%) and 2005–2007 (6.0%) and a decreasing trend thereafter to 4.4% in 2009–2011.

A recent population‐based study reported that the publication of AUC for invasive coronary angiography was associated with a decreasing trend in the utilization of diagnostic angiography for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. 26 There have been mixed reports with regard to the efficacy of MPI‐based AUC.
