With tumor progression, the proportions of cells exerting antitumor immune responses, including CD8 + T cells ( P < 0.001), NK cells ( P < 0.001), and M1-type macrophages ( P < 0.05), were significantly reduced at 28 days compared with mice at 0 day or 7 days, while the proportion of MDSCs, which promoted tumor progression, was significantly increased ( P < 0.05), and Treg also showed an increasing trend ( P > 0.05) (Fig. 2 A–G).

An increasing trend of the prevalence of hyperuricemia was observed across no‐diabetes, pre‐diabetes, and diabetes groups in females ( P < 0.05).

Besides, single lesion gradually developed to multiple ones in the disease progression, with an increasing trend ( P = 0.05) in median affected pulmonary segments (7.0, 9.0, 10.5 and 12.0) (Table S1 in Supplementary Appendix).

Furthermore, compared with the L-Thy + SO 2 group, the BW values of rats in the L-Thy + SO 2 + HDX group decreased (p < 0.05), while the HW/BW values showed an increasing trend without statistically significant differences (p > 0.05).

Estradiol levels and left ovarian volume also showed an increasing trend (P < 0.05).

Similarly, the protein abundances of ZO-1, E-cadherin, occludin, claudin-1 and claudin-5 in the jejunum and ileum showed an increasing trend in both the Car group and the Cin + Car group ( P < 0.05; Fig. 2 B and C).

As shown in Figure 6 A, the O 2.- production rates of all the treatments presented an increasing trend, and the O 2.- production rates of the treatment group M5 were all significantly lower than that of the control ( p < 0.05).

C41Fc significantly increased the percentage of granzyme B-producing cells in the CD3 + and CD4 + T cell populations ( Figure 8 D and Figure 8 H, respectively), but only showed an increasing trend for intracellular cytokines in all three T cell populations, and for granzyme B only in the CD8 + population ( p > 0.05).

In contrast, the DM treatment group exhibited an increasing trend in the ratio of LC3II/LC3I, significantly higher levels of p -AMPK/AMPK ( p < 0.05), and reduced levels of p -mTOR/TOR ( p < 0.01).

Two Aux/IAA genes ( DoIAA5 , 12 ) displayed an increasing trend from S1 to S3, and were negatively correlated ( r < -0.5, p < 0.05) with IAA content.

Within the tested range of concentrations, i.e., 5-15 mg/l, an increasing trend was observed only with 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) (X 2 -7.87; p < 0.05).

aureus represented an increasing trend ( P < 0.05), whereas Enterobacter represented a decreasing trend ( P < 0.05).

An APC > 0 ( P < 0.05) denotes an increasing trend in incidence rates, whereas an APC < 0 ( P < 0.05) signifies a decreasing trend.

There was an increasing trend in tertiary hospitals ( P < .05), whereas a decreasing trend was observed in hospitals ( P < .05) (tertiary hospitals: 55.6% in 2012 and 71.0% in 2019; hospitals: 18.5% in 2012 and 5.4% in 2019).

Approximately 27.5% of the Tibetan Plateau exhibited an increasing trend of annual trend (3.82% with a significant increase, p < 0.05).

When the APC > 0 and P < 0.05, it indicates an increasing trend, while when APC < 0 and P < 0.05, it indicates a decreasing trend.

However, following substitution with CM reprocessed by different methods, an increasing trend in these free amino acids was noted, with HCM group showing the most pronounced improvement ( P < 0.05).
