ue to the nucleation effect that promotes the growth of hydration products and the pore-infilling effect that fills and divides the pores and pore-throat, both of which contribute to the optimization of microstructure; (2) With the increase of pore-throat size, the porosity of CWRB specimens showed a decreasing trend, and the pores shifted from large equivalent pore size distribution to small equivalent pore size distribution, which was due to the fact that the original small pore throat was no longer used as a channel to connect the pores, but split the original large pores; (3) A large number of pore-throat w

A decreasing trend was observed; however, a one-sample t test showed no significant difference with treatment [ Figure 4A ; t (16) = 0.28, p = 0.79].

For men, there was a decreasing trend in the events in the Southern and Southeastern regions. 33 A study assessing 166 514 coronary angioplasty procedures to treat IHD performed in 180 hospitals between 2005 and 2008 has reported mean in-hospital mortality of 2.3% (minimum of 0%, maximum of 11.4%), which varied according to the geographic region, being lowest in the Southeastern (2.0%) and highest in the Northern region (3.6%).

There was a decreasing trend in p38 MAP kinase activation (70% decrease at 5 min) and a decrease in COX-2 expression (39% decrease at 6h) with the chelation of extracellular calcium ( Figures 5B, D ) but little effect on p65 and ERK activation ( Figures 5A, C ).

It is noteworthy that the MDA content of OE19 showed a decreasing trend under 10% PEG treatment, and was even lower than the normal, although the MDA content of OE19 also showed an increase under 20% PEG treatment, it was always lower than that of ZH11 and osaai1 under the same treatment (Fig. 7 C).

However, if treating ammonium in the CK incubations as indigenous background and deducting it from corresponding NF incubations, the remaining ammonium (net NH 4 + ) in NF incubations showed a decreasing trend along increasing WFPS levels, suggesting a possible active net ammonium consumption under higher moisture conditions ( Table 1 ).

Between 2000 and 2015, the prevalence of BDs in Guangxi has a decreasing trend: the BDs prevalence during 2000–2003 and 2004–2009 increased from 201.80 to 207.13 per 10,000 PIs, and then during 2010–2015, it decreased to 112.60 per 10,000 PIs by a large margin ( 27 ).

With the increase of Mg-gallic acid-MOF, the zeta potentials had a decreasing trend, which indicated that the chemical stability was reduced gradually.

Results Before the pandemic, there was an increasing trend in fentanyl-related visits for males, females and 25- to 64-year-olds, and a decreasing trend in heroin-related visits for males and 18- to 64-year-olds.

The quality scores of indels from Clair3-MP show a decreasing trend compared to Clair3 with Illumina data, providing an overall understanding of how ambiguity among ONT data impacts the quality of indel calling.

However, the results showed that a decreasing trend of the CSA values was visible within the first three days of remobilization.

This is approximately twice as high as in the years 1995 to 2000, despite a decreasing trend in iGBS among infants, an age group with a high incidence rate [ 20 ].

In our study, although the medulla R2* values had a decreasing trend across the three groups, there was no statistical difference.

However, a decreasing trend in event-based extreme precipitation of various return periods has been noted in Pakistan [ 26 , 27 ].

The age gap between husband and wife also positively related to violence (OR ranging 1.321–1.239) although a decreasing trend can be observed as the age gap increases.

Regardless of first offspring birth weight quartile, there was a decreasing trend in HR estimates if the second offspring was larger.

We found that soil retention, water yield, and carbon storage display a rising trend while the nutrient delivery ratio showed a decreasing trend over the past 18 years.

Table 1 shows that the uniaxial ultimate compressive strength and modulus of elasticity of the rock samples are affected to different degrees with the increase of free immersion duration, and both of them showed a decreasing trend.

Such a decreasing trend was consistent with the venous volume measured with ultrasound imaging but with reduced errors (Fig. 5f ).

Aside from the majority of nations that had a constant trend, 11 countries or populations had a decreasing trend in incidence among younger women, with China having the largest decrease (AAPC, −5.22).

Q5 δ 13 C values range from -6.4‰ to 1.1‰, with relatively stable values (~ −1‰) from ~10.8 to 6 ka BP and a decreasing trend from~−1‰ to ~−5‰ since ~6 ka BP (Fig. 2 ), suggesting slightly lower P-E (or effective wetness) in the early and middle Holocene compared to the late Holocene.

The organosomatic indices, given as percent of body weight, of the intestinal segments were 0·37 ± 0·02, 0·35 ± 0·02, 0·23 ± 0·01 and 0·13 ± 0·01 for IN1, IN2, IN3 and IN4, respectively (mean ± S.E.M), showed a decreasing trend towards the distal segments.

Only two of the nine precipitation stations in and around the study area show an increasing trend, while the other seven show a decreasing trend.

For patients treated with systemic corticosteroids, a decreasing trend was observed when the eosinophil percentage was greater than 2%, although the overall trend was not statistically significant ( P -trend=0.199).
