“an increasing trend”

The diversity of gut microbiota in premature infants of BM group showed an increasing trend, while the diversity of gut microbiota in FM group premature infants was almost unchanged, which was not completely consistent with the previous research results ( Cong et al., 2017 ).

Measurements of spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents (sEPSCs) from neurons in the somatosensory cortex showed that sEPSC amplitude (stressed vs control mice: 12.12 ± 1.24 vs 9.85 ± 0.74 pA, U (11,10) = 34, p = 0.139, U test) and frequency (4.90 ± 0.97 vs 3.03 ± 0.53 Hz, t (19) = −1.649, p = 0.116, t test) had an increasing trend, albeit not significantly different, between the two groups ( Fig. 5 B and Fig. 5 D , E ).

INTRODUCTION The “gold standard” procedure for the correction of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) has been the Anderson-Hynes dismembered pyeloplasty technique and open approach being the most common with success rates of 90%–100%, overall.[ 1 , 2 ] Now a day, there is an increasing trend towards the robotic approach to be a new gold standard option for the pediatric population as published in the literature[ 3 ] with similar outcomes as the open pyeloplasty.[ 4 ] Robotic surgery in pediatrics urology has been gained popularity since its introduction almost two decades ago.

The number of cases reported during this period was 14.827 and showed an increasing trend from the age group “10–19” to “70–79”, however, there is a downward trend after the age of 79.

FENa, FECl and FEK did not differ significantly among 3 groups; nonetheless, despite not significant, all showed an increasing trend over time.

Conclusions Our data revealed an increasing trend of AMR to neomycin and apramycin among Aeromonas isolates during the study period, while resistance to erythromycin, tetracycline and thiamphenicol decreased.

Trend analysis showed that since 2016 an increasing trend was observed with regard to the number of publications in this topic with high quality (Fig. 2 ).

Such an increasing trend could be attributed to the increased free volume spaces within the polymer matrix as a result of the increased size of TH/Chitosan-TPP particles obtained from higher TPP to chitosan ratio, thereby increasing their encapsulation efficiencies.

There is an increasing trend towards direct-to-implant (DTI) reconstruction in many centers, where the permanent implant is placed at the time of mastectomy in a subpectoral position, with the breast soft tissue supported along the inferolateral pole with a biomaterial surgical mesh, such as acellular dermal matrix (ADM) or synthetic material 5 .

Clearly, the shear peak strain of FFAMC test specimen showed an increasing trend with the increase in coalescing agent addition amount.

The results indicate an increasing trend in the impervious surface area by 35% in Bishkek, 75% in Osh, and 15% in Jalal-Abad.

This finding is consistent with the conclusions drawn by other studies that the PGSs near workplaces benefits employees both physically and psychologically, and there is an increasing trend that workers are likely to use the PGS surrounding their workplace.

De Marco [ 4 ] reported an increasing trend (+38%) for both asthma and asthma-like symptoms in the Italian population, from 1990 to 2010.

In the 20 to 40 cm soil layer, the soil INV activity showed an increasing trend with the prolongation of growth period, and the C0, C20, and C40 treatments were significantly different at the milk stage ( p < 0.05).

Characterization of Fibrous Material The average diameter of fibers had an increasing trend with speeding up the syringe pump in most of the cases except 10 wt.% of PHB, where increased feeding speed resulted in a decrease in average fiber diameter ( Table 2 ).

However, in a system with the existence of electrostatic repulsive, the adsorption capacity may show an increasing trend with the increase of ionic strength [ 64 ].

The water landscape is in good condition, but the degree of fragmentation has an increasing trend, which requires reasonable protection and utilization.

During the studied period, the separation of all the landscape types showed an increasing trend, with that of forest land increasing significantly over the 15 years.

A slope greater than 0 indicates an increasing trend, and one less than 0 shows a decreasing trend.

Total organic carbon (TOC) in R 0.25 of soil mechanical-stable aggregates was basically all increased after biochar application, especially in 0.25–1 mm and 1–2 mm aggregates, and had an increasing trend with biochar increase.

For a certain porosity PTFE/Al energetic material, as the strain rate increases, the yield strength, compressive strength, and failure strain of the material all show an increasing trend.

In contrast, the creep curves for the testing temperature higher than 450 °C show an increasing trend, rather than a steady stage at the end of the creep curve.

In general, the risk level of flood disaster varies among provinces, and the risk level of flood disaster shows an increasing trend in each province from 2016 to 2018.

It can be seen from the table that the densities of the foam materials presented an increasing trend with the increase of the fiber addition amount.
