The phrase "a reduced negative correlation" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts involving statistics, research, or data analysis to describe a weaker inverse relationship between two variables.
Example: "The study revealed a reduced negative correlation between exercise frequency and stress levels, indicating that as exercise increased, stress levels decreased, but not as strongly as in previous studies."
Alternatives: "a weaker negative correlation" or "a diminished negative correlation".
Baseline D-dimer, PT, APTT, PAI-1, sTM, and IL-6 were more elevated (positive correlations), and baseline protein C, protein S, and antithrombin were more reduced (negative correlations) among patients in higher APACHE II quartiles (all P ≤ 0.006; Table 2).
Following induction of experimental hydrocephalus in dogs, the ICP wave amplitudes increased (indicative of reduced intracranial compliance) and the CO became reduced, causing a negative correlation between CO and ICP wave amplitudes [ 20].
When analyzing only those S. cerevisiae gene pairs whose bacterial orthologs co-occur in the same operons, the mass of the distribution should shift to the right, enlarging the positive correlation peak while reducing the negative correlation peak (see Results section D).
These activities reduce negative emotions.
Correlation analyses confirmed a trend toward a negative correlation between alexithymia and reaction times for prosody targets preceded by visual word primes (r = −.30, p = 0.09), suggesting a trend toward reduced affective priming with increasing alexithymia scores.
Next, we show that larval settlement of M. coruscus was induced by the wild-type strain of P. lipolytica, while both variants reduced the inducing activities, suggesting a possible negative correlation between capsular polysaccharide levels and antifouling activity and a positive correlation between cellulose production and antifouling activity.
In PD patients, [18F]FDOPA uptake in the striatum is reduced [12 14], and there is a negative correlation between the degree of motor deficit and [18F]FDOPA uptake, especially in the putamen [15 19].
Furthermore, the inputs of Cad on all genes except tll show a strong negative correlation, hence strong weights reduce robustness [In Fig. 1 Additional file 1, the correlations is shown separately for circuits with promoter threshold H = -2.5 and H = -3.5].
The results obtained revealed that there is a negative correlation between the reducing sugars and carbohydrate contents of fermented lignocellulosic waste by action of fungal growth (Figure 1a,b).
Although we found no correlation between muscle atrophy and reduced ROEM or disease duration, there was a significant negative correlation between T2 and ROEM in the patients.
