Powdery Mildew Decreases the Radial Growth of Oak Trees with Cumulative and Delayed Effects over Years by Didier Bert (3171177)

“…Oak infection was monitored at individual tree level, at two sites in southwestern France, over a five-year period (2001–2005). Mean infection severity was almost 75% (infected leaf area) at the end of the 2001 growing season, at both sites, but only about 40% in 2002, and 8%, 5% and 2% in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. …”

Decreased Variability of the 6-Minute Walk Test by Heart Rate Correction in Patients with Neuromuscular Disease by Kira P. Prahm (670305)

“…</p><p>Conclusion</p><p>A modified 6-minute walk test, by correcting walking distance with average heart rate during walking, decreases the variability among repeated 6-minute walk tests, and should be considered as an alternative outcome measure to the standard 6-minute walk test in future clinical follow-up and treatment trials.…”

Decreased Circulating Endothelial Progenitor Cell Levels and Function in Patients with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease by Chia-Hung Chiang (183734)

“…However, the relation between NAFLD and EPC remains unclear. Here, we tested the hypothesis that patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) might have decreased endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) levels and attenuated EPC function.…”

Zika infection decreases Aedes aegypti locomotor activity but does not influence egg production or viability by Karine Pedreira Padilha (5695250)

Image_1_Loneliness predicts decreased physical activity in widowed but not married or unmarried individuals.TIF by Chava Pollak (18478155)

“…In widowed individuals, baseline loneliness was associated with a 0.06 h/week greater decrease in physical activity per year compared to those who were not lonely (p = 0.005, CI -0.1, 0.02)—which equaled a 150% decrease in physical activity per year. …”

Data_Sheet_1_Specific Integration of Temperate Phage Decreases the Pathogenicity of Host Bacteria.docx by Yibao Chen (5517782)

“…However, little is known about the roles of temperate phages in attenuation of bacterial virulence. Here, we report a novel Bordetella bronchiseptica temperate phage, vB_BbrS_PHB09 (PHB09), which has a 42,129-bp dsDNA genome with a G+C content of 62.8%. …”

Discovery and Hit-to-Lead Optimization of Benzothiazole Scaffold-Based DNA Gyrase Inhibitors with Potent Activity against Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa by Andrej Emanuel Cotman (5203904)

“…Starting from DNA gyrase inhibitor <b>1</b>, we identified compound <b>27</b>, featuring a 10-fold improved aqueous solubility, a 10-fold improved inhibition of topoisomerase IV from A. baumannii and P. aeruginosa, a 10-fold decreased inhibition of human topoisomerase IIα, and no cross-resistance to novobiocin. …”

Species1 from Tropical mammal functional diversity increases with productivity but decreases with anthropogenic disturbance by Daniel Gorczynski (10093617)

Baseline characteristics. by David Röthlisberger (17684467)

“…In 81 individuals (15%) ≥1 fall(s) were reported during the follow-up period. The odds for a fall decreased by a factor of 0.86 (95% CI 0.80 to 0.93) for each increase in blood pressure by 10 mmHg. …”

Local inhibition of nitrergic activity in tenotomized rats accelerates muscle regeneration by increasing fiber area and decreasing central core lesions by A.D. Seabra (6515330)

“…<div><p>Muscular atrophy is a progressive degeneration characterized by muscular proteolysis, loss of mass and decrease in fiber area. …”
