In the leftmost panel, the proportional area of non-symptomatic DE (cluster 0) showed a decreasing trend as the threshold of the J-OSDI score increased.

The judgments of trends were the follows: (1) an increasing trend of ASR was found when both the EAPC value and its 95% CI > 0; (2) a decreasing trend of ASR was found when both the EAPC value and 95% CI <0; and (3) any other trends meant the ASR was stable over time.

Furthermore, a decreasing trend was observed with the increase of CD nanocomposite concentrations, which may be related to the higher inner filter effect.

In contrast to charge thresholds, we observed the highest charge density thresholds for the smallest electrodes and a decreasing trend in charge density thresholds with increasing electrode area, for both single stimuli and pulse trains, with a significant interaction between 10 and 30 μm diameter electrodes.

The current study identified a decreasing trend of baPWV with longer total TL or TL G-tail length.

For S2 and S3, the contents of In(PO 3 ) 3 and In 2 O 3 shows a decreasing trend, indicating that the ALD-derived Al 2 O 3 passivation layers prior to Sm 2 O 3 deposition can significantly prohibit the formation of In and P suboxides, which can be attributed to the interface cleaning function of plasma O 2 [ 21 ].
