Although decreased abdominal wall compliance does occur, increased IAV is the more dominant process in critically ill patients [7].
Although decreased cellular immunity increases susceptibility to herpes zoster, the risk of herpes zoster in patients with earlier stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unclear.
Although decreased heart rate variability (HRV) has been well-documented in association with depression after myocardial infarction, this phenomenon has not been studied in patients with stroke.
Although decreased self-attenuation may also increase D-SPECT count rates, the small scale of this effect cannot account for the much larger increase in count rate observed for the D-SPECT with decreased column height.
Although decreased arm swing during gait is the most frequently reported motor dysfunction in individuals with PD, quantitative descriptions of gait in early PD have largely ignored upper extremity movements.
Although decreased plasma BDNF levels have been found in many other disorders, there is some evidence that BDNF is involved in the cause of depression and the mechanism of action of antidepressants.
Although decreased degradation of LPS is not associated with a defined clinical condition it is possible that this phenomenon may exist.
Although decreased erythropoiesis may have an additive role [15], [16], cumulated data suggests that enhanced clearance of RBCs is critical for the development of SMA.
Although decreased acetyl-K14 H3 alone is not sufficient to induce epigenetic silencing, loss of this modification could decrease protection of the promoter from epigenetic silencing.
Although decreased degradation of LPS is not associated with a distinct, well-defined, clinical condition, it is possible that this phenomenon may exist.
Although decreased QKI expression in the brain of schizophrenia patients has been shown by several groups, the nature of the cells with reduced expression, and the physiological effect in the brain of patients is not known.
