“a decreasing trend”

LV longitudinal function showed a decreasing trend as scores increased, while log NT-proBNP showed an increasing trend as scored decreased.

In contrast to other crop models, EPIC depicted a decreasing trend under irrigated conditions.

A decreasing trend was observed for nanoconjugates relative to low molecular weight iron chelators (DFO, DFX, and DFP), although it is not significantly different ( Figure S11 ).

In contrast, the results point to a successful experience with community violence, whose rates suggest a decreasing trend over the years.

A decreasing trend is observed in T c with an increase in the Al concentration, where the 12 at.% Al and equiatomic 20 at.% Al thin film showed a T c of ~850 K and of 700 K, respectively, while the high Al containing 26 at.% Al thin film exhibits the lowest magnetic transition temperature at ~600 K.

Background Although the incidence and mortality of GC showed a decreasing trend globally, [ 1 ], GC remains the fifth most common malignant tumor worldwide and the third leading cause of death (723,000 people die from GC, accounting for 8.8% of the world’s population) [ 2 ].

The ORs for administration of epinephrine in the pediatric population relative to baseline (age group: 19–65) were 0.34 (95% CI, 0.15–0.67), 0.56 (95% CI, 0.28–1.03) and 0.79 (95% CI, 0.45–1.33) in the < 7, 7–12 and 13–18 age groups, respectively, with a decreasing trend of epinephrine with decreasing age ( P trend < 0.001).

Root length density and root surface area density both showed a decreasing trend with respect to depth in different vegetation types.

His bilirubin levels showed a decreasing trend and normalization.

In the healthy group, the relative abundance of Firmicutes showed a decreasing trend following birth—from 38.48% in day 0 samples (meconium) to 25.83% in day 7 samples.

The levels of the chemokines IL-8, SDF-1α, and IP-10 increased significantly and peaked 3 days after treatment, showing a decreasing trend on day 7 ( Figure 1 ).

No significant differences (p = 0.70) in monsoon and non-monsoon season were observed for dissolved oxygen concentration, but a decreasing trend was observed from South to North which might be related to the organic loading from the rivers.

Seven of the 14 procedures accounting for 99% of low-value episodes showed a decreasing trend in numbers of low-value episodes, while three showed an increasing trend ( figures 1 and 3 ).

With the rise in both antidepressant dosage and PSRS, the bilateral precentral gyrus , the right postcentral gyrus and the left paracentral lobule increased in surface - compared to non-treated CHR-P and FEP subjects, where a decreasing trend appeared.

The greatest inadequacy is for physicians with a decreasing trend in the past and now only 1:42,706 population which is among the lowest ratio in sub-Saharan Africa.

In fact, it appears that rather than normalizing the values to be consistent, the system slightly overcompensated the output in the opposite direction, resulting in a decreasing trend of CTDI vol with table height.

In female eels, BMD in vertebrae showed a decreasing trend from yf to mf, in line with maturation ( Fig. 1 D , Top and Bottom ).

In the South-Asian region, a decreasing trend in the prevalence of anemia among women of reproductive age was observed between 1995 and 2011; however, the prevalence among pregnant women was almost unchanged [ 6 ] There was no significant association of women’s age with being anemic.

In the case of band conduction, frequency shows a decreasing trend.

SAA exhibited a decreasing trend during follow-up in treatment responders, whereas these changes were not observed in non-responders ( 79 ).

In case of the IL-17 we also saw a decreasing trend in the ZAP-70 +/− spleen cell culture supernatants when compared to the BALB/c, however this difference was not statistically significant (641.57 ± 83.96 vs. 798.16 ± 101.82) ( Figure 2 B).

Lastly, we would point out that, after successful surgical treatment, the metabolic assessment significantly ameliorated with reduction of fasting glucose levels and a decreasing trend in lipid panel variables.

Aflatoxin contamination level showed a decreasing trend from samples collected in March (Round 1) (mean: 140.78 μg/kg) to samples collected in June (Round 3) (mean: 70.01 μg/kg), then increased from June to October (Round 6) ( Figure 1 ).

However, coronary heart disease risk shows a decreasing trend with an average risk and 95% credible intervals entirely above 1 at the start of the time period (and higher than the other two diseases) but below 1 at the end (and now lower than the other two diseases).

The relative abundance of Proteobacteria showed a decreasing trend over the last 7 millennia from 48.7 to 12.7%, followed by a slight increase up to 40.3% in ice strata older than 7,000 years ( Figure 5A ).
