It is evident that in 2000–2004, 2004–2008, 2008–2013, and 2013–2017 the annual average conversion rate from high-grade to low-grade ecological risk (i.e., LOW-EXL, REL-EXL, REL-LOW, MED-EXL, MED-LOW, MED-REL, REH-EXL, REH-LOW, REH-REL, REH-MED, HIG-EXL, HIG-LOW, HIG-REL, HIG-MED, HIG-REH, EXH-EXL, EXH-LOW, EXH-REL, EXH-MED, EXH-REH, and HIG-REH) exhibited a decreasing trend.

Though the proportion of carbon density of agriculture changed slightly, as a whole, it showed a decreasing trend (from 8.30% to 2.47%).

Cultivated land showed a decreasing trend, especially from 2010 to 2014, and its area decreased rapidly, which could be result of effective implementation of the Grain to Green policy in Jiulong River basin [ 27 ].

Measured Outcomes Meta-Analysis and Meta-Regression The quantitative analysis evidenced a decreasing trend in the DMFT in the time series, regardless of HDI ( Figure 2 ).

The ASR of overall mortality reveals similar directions: a decreasing trend in males and a slow but steady increase in females.

A mortality rate in FN patients varies 2.6%–50.6%, depending on the presence of comorbidity and underlying cancer.[ 9 ] Solid tumor patients have lower rate of mortality compared with hematological malignancies, which the latter also associates higher rate of bacteremia and opportunistic infections.[ 9 ] In an epidemiological survey by the UK group in 2011, the annual incidence of FN among solid tumor patients was estimated about 2/1000 oncology admissions, while the attributed mortality was 12.5%.[ 10 ] Furthermore, it appears the mortality rate and infectious condition has a decreasing trend during recent years.

[74] also using the Ellman colorimetric method, found a decreasing trend in AChE catalytic activity in AD patients as compared to controls but these results did not reach significance.

Serum NSE levels can be detected in the initial stage of the disease, peaking within 24–96 h after ischemia, and showing a decreasing trend when the symptoms disappear [ 33 ].

An increasing trend was seen in the rate of tumor recurrence and, similarly, a decreasing trend was seen in RFS across groups.

mmu-miR-126b-5p was downregulated in exosomes on aging ( Figure 2 ) and also showed a decreasing trend in the lungs ( Figure 3A ).

We categorized the patients into three age groups and found that the incidence of OM had a decreasing trend with increasing age (32(74.4%), 30(60%) and 34(51.5%) in 15-29 years, 30-45 years and >45 years groups, respectively), but the trend was not statistically significant (P=0.06).
