observed a decreasing trend in Young’s modulus with increasing irradiances, reaching no statistically significant difference between the 18 mW/cm 2 and the control group.

jensenii displayed a decreasing trend with increasing pH while BV-associated BSP-encoding taxa displayed the opposite trend (Figure S1 ).

30 Polygamy, a decreasing trend in Nigeria, 31 32 is a culturally accepted practice in many communities; 33 it allows men to have as many children as possible whether or not they have the material resources to provide for the household—mainly due to son-preference 34 —and may be an additional factor for inappropriate feeding practices in Nigeria.

There was also a decreasing trend in T-scores at all sites with greater AUDIT scores.

However, there was a decreasing trend in DHEAS level noted for patients 35 years and above, but this was not significantly different from the average DHEAS level for individuals below 35 years.

In the present experimental conditions, the total bacteria and fungi plate counts in both the infested and control substrate samples showed a decreasing trend over time up to the end of the experiment, without climate simulation effects being observed.

The blank control showed the proportional decrease of both clonal cells and the normal cells in the cultured cells, but did not show a decreasing trend of the percentage of clonal cells.

The Mantel correlogram ( Fig 3C ) displayed a decreasing trend in the value of r M with increasing stream distance.

The number of cases in the last three surveys remains 210 over 2 years (105 per year), which suggests a decreasing trend, although there were differences in the size of the hospitals surveyed.

In particular, a decreasing trend in the rank sum test was observed with increasing DP because it included little consideration of the dispersion of the variables.

In addition, an effective prediction method for a multilabel classification problem should rank the candidate toxicities well; that is, prediction accuracies should follow a decreasing trend with the increasing of the prediction order.

A dose of 1 mg/kg (n = 5) of cisplatin produced a decreasing trend, but this finding was not significant.

Bacteria continued to demonstrate exsA promoter activation in LB supplemented with magnesium and EGTA after 4 h of incubation, although promoter activity exhibited a decreasing trend from that observed after 3 h.

11 Our results indicate that the annual prevalence of HCV infection in Korea has gradually increased, and that the infection has spread, given the yearly increases in prevalence among older age groups in the high-prevalence regions (despite a decreasing trend among younger age groups).

94 , 95 Internationally, a decreasing trend of abortions for SCA is observed, which is attributed to a generally less bleak prognosis than assumed in the past. 94 Incidental prenatal diagnoses of SCA are reported to lead to milder phenotypes than found in individuals diagnosed on clinical grounds.

The ALB levels showed a decreasing trend in the UDCA group; however, there was an increasing trend for ALB with the combination treatment.

There was no significant difference in average net knee power between powered and average unpowered conditions ( P =0.195), yet a decreasing trend of the magnitude was observed.

Results When the last 10 years were compared to the previous years, sentinel general practice surveillance recorded a decreasing trend of influenza‐like illness rates in the community.

During the past forty years, males showed a decreasing trend in recombination rate that coincided with the artificial selection for milk production.

Compared with the 2012 season, the chlorophyll content for the 2013 season showed a decreasing trend, a decrease of 4.0~17.2% depending on the salinity of the irrigation water.

The participation rate of the organized cervical cancer screening program in Finland is currently at 70 % with a decreasing trend [ 1 ].

We also saw a decreasing trend of postoperative nausea and vomiting.

Theoretical investigations in [ 16 ] demonstrate that the Gain versus δ relation exhibits a decreasing trend as δ increases for smooth bifurcation, whereas the Gain versus δ relation exhibits an increasing trend as δ increases for border-collision bifurcation.

Shade-tolerant species systematically showed high WSG values with a decreasing trend along the radial profile (negative slopes, Fig 4 ).
