The phrase "a decrease in respiration" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to biology, medicine, or physiology when discussing changes in breathing rates or patterns.
Example: "The patient exhibited a decrease in respiration after receiving the sedative."
Alternatives: "a reduction in breathing" or "a decline in respiratory rate."
Both isoflurane and sevoflurane anaesthesia cause respiratory depression with hypercapnia, acidosis and a decrease in respiration rate within 10to5050 min after anaesthesia induction [23].
By contrast, haemorrhage to achieve a similar acidaemia, resulted in significant falls in blood pressure and tPO2, hyperlactataemia, a small rise in SaO2 and a decrease in respiration rate with a concomitant fall in PaCO2 probably related to higher tidal volumes.
Regarding the cisplatin-resistant breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 it should be noted that, while cisplatin had no effect on glycolysis and cellular impedance, a decrease in respiration could be observed at the highest (50 µM) cisplatin concentration, clearly indicating that these cells sense cisplatin but are not sensitive to cisplatin induced cell death (Fig. 3).
Larger tidal volumes would have required a decrease in respiration rate in order to maintain normoventilation.
Also there was a decrease in respiration rate by an average of <70 breaths/minute.
Furthermore, in agreement with previous findings during spaceflight [ 19, 36], our study showed a decrease in respiration frequency during HDBR.
The postharvest increase in RH was offset by a decrease in autotrophic respiration such that the total ecosystem respiration changed little.
Although a decrease in mitochondrial respiration might be important for cell adaptation, an extended reduction of respiration leads to excessive ROS formation.
Therefore, although a decrease in mitochondrial respiration might be important for adaptation to stress, an extended reduction of respiration leads to excessive ROS formation.
In Fig. 4a, there was a decrease in basal respiration in the septic control group, particularly as compared with that found in the gentisic septic group, while coupled respiration in the septic control group was not different from that found in the non septic control group (4B).
One of findings in this study was a decrease in CIV respiration in the CO group when compared to the control group.
