“a decreasing trend”

Then, the total area of vegetation reached the maximum at poor connectivity and moderate connectivity and finally showed a decreasing trend.

[ 72 ] that as the concentration of several hydrophilic 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium cation ([C 4 mim] + )-based ILs was increased, the activity of Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) invariably showed a decreasing trend, which could be attributed to the fact that the hydrophilic ILs competed for the bounded water on the surface of the lipase, making the enzyme difficult to maintain its structural flexibility.

However, focus group participants indicated that the trend of goat population size per household indicates a decreasing trend in the study area due to most of the communal rangeland that is used for keeping goats previously has entered in to the area enclosure for natural resource conservation purposes.

Meanwhile, the cellular LN mRNA level was significantly increased in the LPS group compared with the control group, and there was a decreasing trend of FN, LN and Col4 mRNA in the artemisinin group, among which the LN mRNA expression was significantly different ( Figure 10D ).

The level of supply and demand matching shows a decreasing trend from the central to the periphery.

In the present study, we found a decreasing trend of PC, CE, and DAG levels in DOR rats, which was reversed following BHF intervention.

Results: Plasma NT-proANP concentration decreased significantly from point 2 to point 1 ( p < 0.05), whereas plasma NT-proBNP concentration showed a decreasing trend but did not differ significantly between points 1 and 2.

We also observed a decreasing trend of severity (leaf necrosis and shoot mortality probability) with the time of disease presence in a plot that could be significant for the future of ash dieback.

Figure 3 a shows that the dissolution in the main fracture (HF) follows a decreasing trend, showing the highest dissolution near the wellbore and the lowest at the fracture tip.

Data showed a decreasing trend for academic engagement and an increasing trend for problem behavior.

Correspondingly, a decreasing trend in the potency of the Component A was also observed, but not for the capability of forming nanoparticle assembly.

It can be seen that OM content, TN content and C/N ratio in both the control group and the experimental group showed a decreasing trend during the fermentation process, and presented the negatively correlated with the spectral reflectance at 450 nm–1650 nm.

After the implementation of the CPHRP, both medicine revenues and the proportion of medicine revenue in total revenue showed a decreasing trend.

Aggregation of data above the ideal line indicates to an increasing trend of the time series whereas the concentration of data below the ideal line represents a decreasing trend of the series [ 46 ].

It can be seen that the reported incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in China presents a decreasing trend year by year and has obvious seasonality, with two apparent epidemic peaks in January and March of each year, which were close to the results of previous research [ 23 ].

By contrast, a decreasing trend was found for anti-apoptotic proteins such as Bcl-2.

The tensile strength of the PVA/cellulose/Ag SERS chips was evaluated, revealing a decreasing trend with higher cellulose/Ag content ( Fig. 1 f).

Specifically, the entire period of analysis can be divided into three phases: from 2001 to 02 to 2008-09, the contribution effect of transport form, whose average contribution value was −11574.25 ten thousand tons, was relatively weak and showed a decreasing trend; from the year 2009–10 to 2014-15, the factor of transport form maintained a substantial effect on inhibiting CO 2 emissions when the average contribution value reached −36180.67 ten thousand tons, especially, in 2014–15, the inhibitive effect reached its peak with the contribution value of −49694.1 ten thousand tons; during 2015–16 to 2019-20, The restrictive result of transport mode demonstrates the same negative trend as in previous cases, inhibiting CO 2 emissions by an average of −26122.9 ten thousand tons.

After the 14-hour masked intervention, venous blood pH decreased, and calculated arterial pH showed a decreasing trend.

Inter-period analysis of the efficiency of regional health resources As shown in Table 4 , the average TFP of the health resource allocation efficiency in Sichuan Province from 2010 to 2018 is 0.950, which is <1, indicating that the resource allocation efficiency in Sichuan Province is on a decreasing trend.

In contrast, it shows a decreasing trend below the flow ridge.

A decreasing trend in strength is observed from JFRP to 4P5J – 3, followed by an inverse trend from 4P5J – 4 to PFRP, as illustrated in Fig. 9 (a).

On the other hand, the increasing overall cohort trend among Malaysian current smokers is most plausibly because of the increasing cohort trends among the Malays and other aborigines, since cigarette use among the Chinese remained almost constant at 12 to 13 cigarettes per day, whilst the Indians had the lowest mean cigarette use across birth cohorts and showed a decreasing trend in more recent cohorts.

This increase in bispectrum was also observed in Trial 3 for P 12 and P 13 , but not for P 23 , which presented a decreasing trend (See Figures S1 and S2, Extended data 98 ).

The annual extreme warm events show a significant increasing trend at 99% confidence level at most stations, and a few stations with a decreasing trend are mainly located in the southern Sichuan Province, the northern Yunnan Province and the western Guizhou Province.
