Potential pro-inflammatory bacteria Bacteroides , Turricibacter , Clostridium and Desulfovibrionaceae showed a decreasing trend ( P < 0.05), among which the relative abundance of Bacteroides and Desulfovibrionaceae showed an obvious downward trend from the 9th week to the 15th week ( Fig 3I–3L ).

The serum uric acid (UA), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and NALP3 showed a decreasing trend, and the decrease degree of each index in observation group was higher than that in control group (P < 0.05).

Conversely, water intake had a decreasing trend (p < 0.05) from Week 2 and remained constant until the end of the study.

Moreover, most tested soil physicochemical properties showed a decreasing trend from topsoil to the subsoil, whereas soil pH increased ( P < 0.05) with the soil depth, except for the EEGN site ( Table 3 ).

Compared to the Con group, the ingested nitrogen of the piglets in the Rha group, Lac group, and mix group was significantly increased ( P < 0.05), fecal nitrogen, urinary nitrogen, and total nitrogen emissions showed a decreasing trend, the apparent nitrogen digestibility of Rha and Lac groups tended to increase; the apparent nitrogen digestibility of the mix group increased by 1.88% ( P < 0.05), and the nitrogen deposition rate increased respectively increased by 4.17, 4.49, and 5.65% ( P < 0.05), and the nitrogen utilization rate increased by 2.82, 3.23, and 3.70%, respectively ( P < 0.05). 3.2.

In aspiration pneumonia and respiratory failure, the incidence of RDS has a decreasing trend, but it has not yet constituted a statistical difference ( P > 0.05).

Similarly, in the ipsilateral striatum, the VLD and FVV of TIA mice exhibited a significant decrease relative to the control group ( p < 0.05), while a decreasing trend in the MVLD and FMVV was noted ( p > 0.05).

Children and adolescents in the eastern provinces of China showed a high proportion of high PFI with an increasing trend over time, while those in the western provinces had a high proportion of low PFI with a decreasing trend over time ( P < 0.05).

Besides, CTRL samples showed a decreasing trend in TA values, reaching the lowest value recorded during the test on the tenth day of cold storage (1.38 ± 0.03% citric acid; p < 0.05).

Despite this, there seems to be a decreasing trend of SOD activity with an increasing dose of eugenol and pulegone (groups II, III, and IV) ( p > 0.05).

The peak in the cancer rate was defined as the point at which there was a significant change in the lung cancer rates from an increasing trend to a decreasing trend, as identified by the Joinpoint regression program with p<0.05 considered to denote statistical significance (Kim et al., 2000).

Compared with the CIA model group, the AI values of rats in each group showed a decreasing trend from the 10 th day after administration, and the AI values at different time points in each administration group, including the CRME group ( p < 0.05), significantly differed from those in the model group ( p < 0.01) ( Figure 2(b) ).

Compared with the Control group, AFB1-induced liver injury resulted in a significant increase in MDA content in liver homogenate, no significant change but a decreasing trend in GSH ( p < 0.05), and a significant decrease in T-AOC ( p < 0.05), indicating that AFB1 induced hepatic oxidative stress, leading to decreased total antioxidant capacity and increased lipid peroxidation.
