“a decreasing trend”

An EAPC of less than 0 indicates a decreasing trend in the rate over time, and a value greater than 0 indicates an increasing trend.

The number of studies related to CPA tumors and facial nerve demonstrated a decreasing trend in Chinese and an increasing trend in English ( Figure 2 ).

Except for the high SDI regions, which showed a slow increase followed by a decreasing trend, the ASPR and the age-standardized DALYs rate in other SDI regions exhibited an overall upward trend.

As the distance from the centre axis of the pipe ( y = 0) increases, the value of the horizontal displacement also increases; with increasing depth, the value of the horizontal displacement shows a decreasing trend, reaching its minimum at z = 8 m.

However, during delay periods, a decreasing trend in Fano factor was observed.

The stress deviator below the boundary of the coal pillar shows a decreasing trend with increasing depth z , and the deceleration gradually slows with increasing z .

As the distance from the high-temperature heat source increases, CO concentration shows a decreasing trend.

A decreasing trend was observed for dysphagia and gastroduodenal ulcers, though these differences were not statistically significant ( P = 0.056 for both).

As the frequency increases, the displacement perturbation occurs more frequently, the average Δ x per stick-slip period increases, thus the friction shows a decreasing trend with frequency.

Figure 7b illustrates the nonlinear effect of land use diversity on physical activity for the two elderly groups, with the images showing different shapes, with the obese elderly group depicting a decreasing trend in physical activity at a land use diversity of 0.6 and the standard‐weight elderly group presenting an increasing trend at a land use diversity of over 0.7.

subtilis natto at 48 h showed a decreasing trend.

Studies on cancer survival in PLWH using data from the National Health Insurance Service found that cancer rates were approximately 1.7-fold higher in PLWH than in the general population, with a decreasing trend in AIDS-related cancers and a gradual increase in non-AIDS-related cancers [ 42 – 44 ].

The results showed that miR-301a-5p showed high expression in SHPT tissues, while CaSR mRNA expression showed a decreasing trend.

Finally, regarding the B lymphocyte population, only the CD21 + subset showed a decreasing trend during the time course of infection in the CNT group.

Moreover, on initiation of indomethacin therapy, the maternal urinary spot chloride levels showed a decreasing trend.

ZO-1 and occludin protein levels were elevated in the chitosan group than MPTP group; however, acetate supplementation was associated with a decreasing trend in the expression of these two proteins ( Figure 5 B ).

For FG, the highest ATE was observed at 6 months, followed by a decreasing trend.

With the increase in the number of cooperatives, the membership size of cooperatives has shown a decreasing trend, showing a characteristic of “large group, small scale.” This is because cooperatives have set low minimum membership thresholds, and inappropriate support policies have created many “shell cooperatives” that seek only to obtain support funds without considering cooperative development and growth.

Therefore, with the improvement of the CCD level of EnR-ElR binary system, its marginal contribution to the overall CCD will also show a decreasing trend.

The results showed that workers used more antidepressants after the recession (13%), which contrasted with a decreasing trend of use before the recession and that this effect was stronger in high lay-off plants.

The dry weight loss also depicted a decreasing trend among the groups, indicating that the fluorescence signal disappearance precisely represented the collagen degradation process ( Figure 2B3 ).

Regarding fin whales, their small, isolated subpopulation in the Mediterranean Sea numbers no more than 1700 estimated mature individuals, with a decreasing trend, and has been recently uplisted from “Vulnerable” to “Endangered” in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (Panigada et al. 2021 ).

Fresh shoot weight at 8 DAP showed a decreasing trend from high-dhurrin level genotypes (SC1154-14E, 1790E, and BTX642) to low-dhurrin genotypes (TX7000, BTX623, and SC1506) across all treatments, except under sand+N (T3), where BTX623 and TX7000 had similar FSW as the high dhurrin genotypes ( Figure 3A ).

More research on this topic is warranted to find whether there is a decreasing trend between PBF and age or significant differences between the sexes.

SI12 , Spearman correlation = 0.58, p -value < 0.05), with significant interannual variability and a decreasing trend in the wetland area from 1985 onwards (Table SI2 ).
