The corresponding empirical heterozygosity values from subpopulations 1–4 also exhibit an increasing trend from west to east, as expected from invasion history.

The figure also shows the proportion of ARI cases which subsequently were prescribed antibiotics, with an increasing trend in all age groups throughout the study period.

We showed that lapatinib treatment in 100 nM and 250 nM for 8 hours induced an increasing trend of NRG1 mRNA expression in SK-BR-3 cells (Fig. 1C ), although the increase was not statistically significant.

However, in sham-operated groups there was an increasing trend; however, it was not statistically significant.

Although no obvious acute inflammatory response was noted, these mice still developed chronic liver disease and hepatic fibrogenesis as demonstrated by increased ground glass-like hepatocytes, an increasing trend of collagen deposition and upregulated fibrosis markers, including type I collagen, type III collagen, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP), and transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1).

Conclusions This nationwide population-based study demonstrated an increasing trend in glaucoma medical expenditures from 1997 to 2010 in Taiwan.

Previous studies demonstrated that DMT1 expression had an increasing trend with age in the brain of aged rats and various inflammatory factors also upregulated DMT1 expression in the brain (Lee et al., 1998; Mackenzie et al., 2007).

As a general behaviour of LAI in the area, over the decade studied, an increasing trend in annual average LAI was observed.

Further, an increasing trend of DNA integrity was observed from healthy controls (0.35 ± 0.27) to breast cancer stages of I–III (0.53 ± 0.23) to stage IV cases (0.60 ± 0.26).

In the present study, use of this 3D mapping system for RAP ablation significantly reduced the total procedure and EP study times compared to the conventional procedure, although there was an increasing trend in preparation time.

A recent study using the data of 13 mountain stations of Nepal (1980–2009) reported that only the maximum and mean temperatures are in an increasing trend without any changing trend of minimum temperatures [ 69 ].

There was an exponential escalation in the occurrence of infections from 1960–1970 to the early 1990s with an increasing trend up to the 2010s ( Fig 1B ).

Power to detect a significant trend was typically less than 5%, but for datasets simulated to have an increasing trend, an increase in stopover duration resulted in an increase in power to almost 10% ( Fig 2b ) due to fewer credible intervals that included zero as estimated trends became increasingly positively biased.

Our data revealed an increasing trend in SOC over time in the former but little change in the latter.

Moreover, from the cumulative forest plot, OR has an increasing trend as consolidation studies are added.

Data presented in Table 2 for the cosine correlation method did not show an increasing trend of Young modulus with increased cross-linker amounts as was found in the case of AFM indentation.

aureus (from 14% in 2004 to 10% in 2013 and the MRSA incidence decreased over time from 0.98 in 2004 to 0.58 per 1,000 discharged patients in 2013), an increasing trend of NmMRSA (+0.84% per quarter) was observed.

At 5mM of lactose concentration in the EEP the growth rate followed an increasing trend till 25 μM of IPTG concentration and thereafter it saturates (Fig. 5a ).

An increasing trend in recent years has been to use analogs to palliate this lack of knowledge, i.e., exploiting the spatial information from sites where the geology is accessible (outcrops, quarry sites) and transferring the observed properties to a study site deemed geologically similar.

In recent years, there has been an increasing trend to also use more statistical and engineering type methods in the formation of welfare indicators e.g., [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ].

Moreover, there was an increasing trend of in-hospital outcomes such as cardiac death and emergent cardiac surgery in the obese individuals in the Iranian population.

Iran was considered a middle income country for which an increasing trend of non-communicable diseases is predicted ( 7 , 8 ).

The 2,3,4,5 13 C 4 glutamate (M +4 , four 13 C substitutions, m / z 202 (C2–C5)) fragment reflecting TCA cycle anaplerosis due to the recycling of carbons from 1,2 13 C 2 glucose [ 25 ], demonstrated an increasing trend reaching significance at the higher concentrations of fructose, 7.5 and 10 mM ( Figure 1 E).

In our investigation, the average ratio of maternal age less than 20 years was 0.9%; this ratio showed an increasing trend and reached the highest point (1.7%) in 2011.
