Overall, an increasing trend of MEA cases over the years has been observed ( Figure 3 ).

Figure 9 suggests an increasing trend in the dimensional stability of modified wood with rising MBA dosages.

Lastly, the production during the third stage started with a constant plateau (10 or 11 documents per year during the 2011–2014 period), which was followed by an increasing trend in the last few years, from 14 documents in 2015 to 48 papers in 2021.

The rejection of humic acid shows an increasing trend with the addition of a TiO 2 photocatalyst.

This is further borne out in our findings of similar 25OHD 2 concentrations among participants, regardless of varying vitamin D status as opposed to an increasing trend of 25OHD 3 concentrations among participants across vitamin D status categories from deficiency to sufficiency.

A study published in 2019 showed that after 132 infants aged 3.5–6 months were randomly treated with formula milk powder containing mixed probiotics or placebo for 4 weeks, the fecal sIgA level in the probiotic group was higher, and the saliva sIgA also showed an increasing trend [ 37 ], suggesting that the intervention effect of mixed probiotics is also more obvious for fecal sIgA.

Moreover, 1-month mortality and proportion of 3-month mRS of 3–6 also showed an increasing trend with a higher tertile of NLR.

It can be seen that the frequency of gelatin has been significantly higher than that of collagen and silk fibroin in the past two years and shows an increasing trend, indicating that it will still be a hot topic of research in the future.

There were no statistically significant upregulated metabolites in the BALF of menopausal mice compared to control, but 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA) showed an increasing trend ( Table 1 ).

The expression levels of up-regulated mouse orthologs in the GSE111016 indicated an increasing trend as the mice aged.

As illustrated in Figure 2 D, TCML/shRNA exhibited an increasing trend of transfection efficiency, from ~60% to ~100% when the ratio of TCML/shRNA increased from 20 to 100.

The irisin level in the FPLD group displayed an increasing trend.

The MF values of G170 showed an increasing trend during the whole process, and the muscle force gradually increased with the increase in the test height but did not reach the degree of fatigue. 3.2.2.

The strength still showed an increasing trend, and the thermal conductivity was not affected by the addition of fly–ash, and its numerical value was not very different.

Such an increasing trend across the four seasons was not observed for the other species subject to this study. 3.3.

The exothermic reaction rate and total exothermic heat show an increasing trend.

Participants with a poverty–income ratio (PIR) less than 2 showed an increasing trend in the DII grouping, while those with a PIR greater than 2 showed the opposite.

This decrease in volume, despite an increasing trend in the average number of imaging examinations, may lead to a potential labor shortage within radiology as COVID-19 protocols and guidelines regarding imaging are relaxed.

Such an increasing trend was interestingly analogous to the increase in magnetostriction value as increasing the magnetic field.

Due to the high moisture content of the fresh samples and low TTC, the TTC of each part showed an increasing trend with the loss of moisture during the drying process [ 27 ].

At the latest follow-up, the Trifecta valve only maintained a better mean gradient for the 25 mm valve, and for all other sizes, we observed an increasing trend which persisted in the weighted analysis populations.

With the increase of TiO 2 layers, the photocatalytic activity (PA) of the thin films showed an increasing trend, and the maximum degradation efficiency of MB by TiO 2 -SiO 2 was 98%, which was significantly higher than that obtained by SiO 2 thin films.

The highest quartile of density of supermarkets was associated with an increasing trend of BMI in earlier ages, but a decrease in BMI for later years (see Supplementary Table S6e ).

CEA > 80 μg/L with an increasing trend is a contraindication whereas CEA > 80 μg/L with a decreasing trend is only a relative contraindication.

The analysis of drought and rainfall variability over Barmer District (Northwest India) between 1901 and 2002 [ 15 ] revealed an increasing trend in southwest monsoon, annual rainfall, pre- and post-monsoon, and a declining trend in winter rainfall.
