“a decreasing trend”

In developed countries, there is a decreasing trend in the incidence due to early endoscopic detection and changes in risk factors [ 3 ].

As shown in Fig 9 , the localization errors of most algorithms show a decreasing trend as the increase of the total number of nodes.

The average UFP concentration was about 12,000 particles/cm 3 in both conurbations, with a decreasing trend throughout the study period.

However, when considering the tree cover changes, a decreasing trend of AGB is found in all three tropical regions.

The BMI of patients in the NG group was significantly lower after care than before care ( P < 0.05), and there was a decreasing trend compared to TG, but it was not statistically significant (Adjusted β = −0.12, 95% CI:−0.52–0.22, P > 0.05), as shown in Figure 4 . 3.6.

When the filtering criteria were applied, 418 metabolites were identified, with 262 exhibiting an increasing trend and 156 showing a decreasing trend.

With the increase in the number of freezing and thawing cycles, the dynamic elastic modulus indicates a decreasing trend, and the whole is close to a linear change.

Between 1999 to 2004, the AAMR showed a decreasing trend (APC: -0.17%), followed by a significant decline from 2004 to 2008 (APC: -6.24%).

• The thermal pollution shows a decreasing trend. • Lake Licheńskie is prone to long-term salinization and eutrophication but shows decline in alkalinity.

However, the expression of AQP2 and AQP3 in the medulla showed a decreasing trend, but the change was not statistically significant.

Although IL-6 levels showed only a decreasing trend following agomelatine treatment, this reduction was not reversed by STAT3 inhibition.

SCFA profile changes SGD significantly increased total SCFA levels, especially acetate, propionate, and butyrate, while branched-chain SCFAs (isobutyrate, valerate, and isovalerate) showed a decreasing trend ( Figure 4 ).

A decreasing trend was observed in the activated Tregs, although it did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.074).

There was a decreasing trend in error, indicating that the ANN successfully captured the nonlinear relationship between the input parameters and τ by adjusting its weights to minimize prediction errors.

In contrast, ‘Tifdwarf’ displayed an overall increase in MDA content under FS compared to CK, which was reversed to a decreasing trend after Spd treatment ( Figure 6 ).

For Figure 4B , IL-1β levels showed no significant differences among the three groups (P > 0.05), though the CTS group exhibited a decreasing trend compared to the Model group.
