With the increasing culture time, it can be clearly shown that the cell proliferation rate of all GM/PRP microsphere-treated groups exhibited an increasing trend, indicating that prepared GM/PRP microspheres had good biocompatibility.

Although there is a sharp increase of spectral intensity at 384.65 nm, exceeding the spectral intensity of 12.5 and 60 mg/L when no inhibitor is added, the spectral intensity at the three wavelengths shows an increasing trend.

In addition, we noticed that with the increase of tumor volume, the expression of MMP2 showed an increasing trend.

It is noteworthy that the studied metabolic sequelae (DEP and EPD) also displayed an increasing trend in incidence in the present study.

During t1-t2, the small world-ness, the local efficiency, clustering coefficient and global efficiency showed a decreasing trend but the characteristic path length showed an increasing trend.

Ideally, a good soil invertebrate indicator should have an increasing trend in the representation of the invertebrate group across succession, to provide an indication if secondary forest soils are on a trajectory to that of a primary forest.

4 a, the relative permeability of the strain membrane generally showed an increasing trend with increased salt concentrations.

Interestingly, the rest of the databases showed an increasing trend around that period.

In Malaysia, the available surveillance systems for STIs reported an increasing trend of syphilis and gonorrhoea cases, with the incidence rate of syphilis being only 5.7 per 100,000 population in 2012 but had increased to 8.0 per 100,000 population in 2017 [ 4 , 5 ].
