RESULTS In the pulmonary heart disease group, the COPD group, and the control group, the levels of plasma BNP, platelet distribution width (PDW), and mean platelet volume (MPV) showed a decreasing trend ( P < 0.05), while an increasing trend was found in platelet count (PLT) and plateletcrit (PCT) levels among the three groups ( P < 0.05).

PBV values did not vary significantly between protocols A and B at resolution settings of 1, 4 and 10 ( p = 0.10; 0.10; 0.09), while otherwise PBV values displayed a decreasing trend from protocol A to D ( p < 0.05).

In addition, the abdominal fat percentage of broilers in the 3% MLP group was sharply decreased by 29.68% ( p < 0.05), and the abdominal fat percentage of broilers in other treatment groups had a decreasing trend (0.1 < p < 0.05) compared to the control group.

VLDL (very-low-density lipoprotein) and chylomicron particles showed a decreasing trend (−23.6 nmol/L, p = 0.05).

Oestrogen levels in the oestradiol valerate group (85.9 ± 32.13 pg/mL) and the Erzhi pills high-dose group (100.18 ± 43.29 pg/mL) increased significantly ( p < 0.05), while there was a decreasing trend in the Erzhi pill low-dose group (43.04 ± 11.29 pg/mL) ( p > 0.05).

The mortality rate showed a decreasing trend from 1990 to 2014 ( P <0.05), with a slight increase in 2014 and 2018 (APC=0.82, P <0.05), and has continued to decline in recent years (APC=−0.71).

Two groups with BP of <120/<80 and 120–129/<80 mmHg also experienced an increase in DBP, while the other two groups exhibited a decreasing trend (both P < 0.05) ( Supplementary Figure 2 ).

However, on average, at the regional scale, a decrease of the total energy supply prevails (on average, ~ 9.0% per decade), with a decreasing trend being statistically significant ( P < 0.05) for about 40.0% of the study area.

Compared with the control group, there was no difference of the current amplitude, open probability, and open dwell time in sham surgery group ( P > 0.05); compared with the control group and sham surgery group, the open probability and open dwell time of the model group were significantly increased ( P < 0.05, P < 0.01), the current amplitude showed an increasing trend, but there was no statistical significance ( P > 0.05); compared with the model group, the open probability and open dwell time of GV26 group were significantly decreased ( P < 0.01), the current amplitude showed a decreasing trend without statistical significance ( P > 0.05); compared with non‐acupuncture point group, the open probability of GV26 group decreased significantly ( P < 0.05), the current amplitude and open dwell time showed an decreasing trend, but there was no statistical significance ( P > 0.05) (Table 3 , Figure 6 ). 4.

Analysis within the groups revealed that as the memory task difficulty levels increased from 0-back to 2-back, the performance accuracies of the two groups decreased (presented a decreasing trend, P < 0.05), and the reaction times were prolonged (presented an increasing trend, P < 0.05), thus indicating that there was no speed-accuracy trade-off effect.

The statistical analysis of the time-behavior for CO 2 concentrations measured during the whole monitoring period indicated that the series was not stationary (KPSS test, p < 0.05, presence of a decreasing trend) and that the rankings of values were not random ( runs test, p < 0.05; Kwiatkowski et al., 1992 ; Alhakim and Hooper, 2008 ).

As an effect of the T329S mutation, the plasma TC and LDL-C levels showed a decreasing trend, and the plasma VLDL levels were decreased ( P < 0.05); however, the plasma TG levels were not changed in TT hens when compared to those of AA and AT hens.

However, the cell migration ability showed a decreasing trend with the increase of exosome concentration for 12 h, without significant differences ( p > 0.05).

The results showed that the intervals from the onset of symptoms to admission exhibited a decreasing trend among the three groups (13 [10] , [15] vs. 10 [7] , [11] vs. 5 [4] , [8] , p < 0.05).

There was a decreasing trend of half-time with incubation temperature (ANOVA test p < 0.05), especially under high humidity conditions.

The NCDR trend for both sexes was similar (T:-0.55, 95%CI: [-0.64, -0.46]), and age groups showed a decreasing trend (S 15-44 :-103, S 45-64 :-81, S >65 :-61, p <0.05), except for the 0–14 age group (S:-3, p >0.05), which showed no trend.
