“a decreasing trend”

It is interesting that in this RCT the effect of LGIMD is found to be a decreasing trend until 55 years of age for both men and women, as it is showed in Figure 2 .

Water absorption FRCCs with varying GNP content revealed a decreasing trend in the WA results, as shown in Fig. 11 .

In addition, overall LPZ data of malnutrition show a stable trend in the care home setting (28) until 2007 but a decreasing trend since 2007 (23) .This trend was probably realized by care quality improvement programs in the Netherlands and the influence of the government introducing performance indicators on for example nutritional screening, which probably also have led to a larger amount of participants in 2007.

Results There was a trend of increase in total body fat mass in men and a decreasing trend in women but neither reached statistical significance.

Conclusions Patients with musculoskeletal disorders showed a decreasing trend in healthcare utilization and expenditures over time.

OR-1855 concentrations from the neonate were excluded from the popPK analysis, as they showed a decreasing trend throughout the investigation period, likely due to residual concentrations from the first infusion (Fig. 1 , dashed lines), which could unfortunately not be modelled because of the lack of related data.

Despite a decreasing trend, there were no differences in the distribution of total cycle of HDC, induction cycles and consolidation cycles by diagnostic periods (Table 1 ).

The normalized fibrotic gene expression showed a decreasing trend in the drug-treated groups compared with the PBS control.

The ID/AC ratio showed saturating increases in the head (H) and tracheobronchial (TB) regions, but a decreasing trend in the pulmonary (P) region, attributed to a reduction in fine particle fraction.

Soil temperature showed a decreasing trend according to seasonal changes.

The calculated rate constants exhibited a decreasing trend with increasing 4-CL concentrations (Table 1 ), implying that elevated pollutant loads may hinder photocatalytic performance by reducing the number of available active sites or through radical scavenging, consistent with surface saturation effects.

A decreasing trend was observed in mean Pb concentrations for rice products, legume vegetables, fruits, and egg products.

CKD due to T1DM showed a decreasing trend in ASDR, with an AAPC of −0.12 (−0.21 to −0.03).

For ALD, the estimated DALY rate in 2021 was 29.1 per 100,000 population (95% UI 21.8–38.4) globally ( Table S2 ), and a decreasing trend was observed from 2010 (APC -1.45, 95% CI -1.61 to -1.30).

During the study period, the proportion of MDR/RR-TB among new patients showed a decreasing trend in both the EPTB and PTB groups.

Both sites showed a decreasing trend over time, with a more rapid decline in esophageal measurements.

From the 2-class to the 6-class model, AIC, BIC, and SABIC all show a decreasing trend, while the log-likelihood value continues to rise. 4-class model performed well on key information criteria (AIC = 16544.48, BIC = 16606.42; SABIC = 16568.30; entropy = 0.87), indicating good classification certainty.

In turn, shallow stratum soils on the active side are separated from the station wall and become loose, then the earth pressure is released and shows a decreasing trend.

In general, all models displayed a decreasing trend in classification loss and objectness loss on both training and validation data as the number of epochs increased.

The TFC, tendon proteoglycan (TP), tendon tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TTIMP) and LO module scores showed a decreasing trend, with highest expression in the ch-SH MTJ, followed by the dermal bone, and the lowest in the EOMT.

In responders (the total effective cases), post-rTMS assessments revealed significant neurochemical changes in the left DLPFC: GABA+ levels increased significantly ( P < 0.05), while Glx levels showed a decreasing trend (though not statistically significant, P = 0.188).

In Mexico, the global fertility rate has exhibited a decreasing trend, from an average of 2.21 children per woman in 2014, to 2.07 in 2018, to 1.60 in 2023 [ 30 ].

The rod-to-cone ratio showed a decreasing trend with advancing age ( Fig 2 A).

As the deflector plate inclination gradually increases from 15° to 90°, the overall air velocity at all inlets exhibited a decreasing trend.

In the Polish AMI-PL register, the number of admissions for ACS was 176 per 100,000 inhabitants, with a decreasing trend observed over the years, which is in line with the results of our study [ 22 ].
