“a negative trend”

MC-LR was the only toxin variant that showed a negative trend (red arrow) to increases in toxin diversity, although lacking statistical significance.

55 , 58 As Figure 15 showed, based on simple linear regression model, there is a negative trend association between CL and year ( b : −49.91; R 2 : 0.221).

Mediation analysis – indirect effects of cortisol on memory performance in HS As both cortisol level and memory performance were significantly associated with left hippocampal volume in HS and given a negative trend (though not statistically significant) for the relationship between serum cortisol and memory performance, we tested whether the left hippocampal volume was possibly mediating the effect of serum cortisol on memory performance ( Figure 4 ).

The linear regression between base demand and lps demand ( Figure 12 ) shows a negative trend.

In the performance of subsystems within the YRMUA, a negative trend is observed between the SES and the NES, as well as between the HSS and the NES ( Figures 4 A–4C).

Because a negative trend was already evident with longer survival times (comparing 20–24 h vs. 40–48 h), we did not extend postinjection survival times beyond 48 h, but the expectation is that, like horseradish peroxidase, the retrogradely transported sodium selenite would be cleared from the neurons with longer survival times.

S3) highlighted that PC1 is mainly related to a* , BI and DON with a positive association, but also L* and b* with a negative trend, while PC2 is mainly positively associated to AA and AA/ASN and negatively to DON.

Since miRNA expression and ceRNA (mRNA, lncRNA, etc.) expression take on a negative trend according to the ceRNA hypothesis, there were 5 targeting miRNA that had been screened in the matched miRNA ( Figure 10A ).

S1 was the only special one with the best values occurring before 2010 and the worst values occurring after 2010, indicating that the water quality in S1 may have a negative trend.

A specific analysis of the effects of eating cheese on CHD has not been reported, although in one analysis, there was a negative trend between CHD and cheese consumption whereas the association with milk was positive [ 70 ].

We further observed that the Vγ2 x PD-L1-induced Vγ2Vδ2 T cells’ cytotoxicity (killing EC 50 ) towards tumor cells was correlated significantly with these tumor cells’ PD-L1 expression scores, while the release IFNγ EC 50 showed a negative trend with the PD-L1 expression scores ( Figure 6C ).

Except for a negative trend with decreasing cortisone levels during summer, LCC was not significantly correlated with any of the hormonal parameters.

Compared to normal saline injected rats, the most important finding was a negative trend of weight in dexamethasone-treated groups and significant decrease on the 8 th day, despite the current idea implying that corticosteroid-related drugs administration causing obesity.

(b) The association between Tat protein concentration and the A / M of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in patients with HIV/AIDS was not statistically significant ( R 2 = 0.0069; F = 0.63; P = 0.42), but showed a negative trend.

Among performance variables, handgrip strength demonstrated a moderate positive association with muscle-related indices, whereas VO2max exhibited a negative trend with body fat percentage.

Correlation analyses implied DC infiltration was somewhat linked to homing of T cells to MSI-H tumors but, overall, the association between APC and T cell frequencies displayed a negative trend regardless of MSI status.

This is analogous to studies analysing trends in the dates of percentiles of passage, where a negative trend indicates an advance of passage over the years and a positive trend means a delay ( Tøttrup, Thorup & Rahbek, 2006a ; Miles et al., 2017 ; Lehikoinen et al., 2019 ).

Initially, there is a negative trend in the first categories of the three traits, as expected.

Umbilical artery pH demonstrated a negative trend with increasing sFlt-1/PlGF values; however, this association did not reach statistical significance after adjustment (estimated change −0.0076 per doubling; p = 0.070).

This suggests that there exists a critical point in leaf development where growth switches from a positive to a negative trend.

Although a negative trend in the physical activity levels of children was detected after the first year since the beginning of the pandemic [ 28 ], this result was encouraging because suggested a positive trend and seemed to suggest that PA levels might return to normal values (i.e., pre-pandemic).

Moreover, while acute cardiac care measures for STEMI (ie, mortality and reperfusion rates) have not been affected by the pandemic, a negative trend in secondary preventive medication uptake suggests reduced quality of long-term care for STEMI.

The slope of the pattern at +200 mV changes from a positive to a negative trend after 8 hrs.

Among woodland species, only two of them showed a negative trend: the Common Chiffchaff ( Phylloscopus collybita ), with a population reduction of 40.64%, and the Goldcrest ( Regulus regulus ), with a decrease of 41.42%.
