The phrase "and further attenuated" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you want to describe something that has been reduced or weakened even more than before.
Example: "The signal was already weak, but after passing through the dense forest, it became even more attenuated."
Alternatives: "and additionally weakened" or "and further diminished".
Using in vivo experiments in rodents and high-density intracerebral recordings in human cadaver brains, we found that scalp-applied currents were halved by the skin and subcutaneous soft tissue and further attenuated by the skull by 16%.
This nonsignificant association was virtually unchanged after additional adjustment for traditional diabetes risk factors and further attenuated with the additional adjustment for BMI.
In serum-starved tissues, DNA synthesis and active protein synthesis were low under all conditions when compared to serum-fed tissues, and further attenuated by U46619 exposure (Fig. 3b(i), b(ii)).
Multivariable analyses for the European men showed that, with the exception of glycine and isoleucine, all linear associations (per SD log-transformed AA level) were markedly attenuated following adjustments for obesity and further attenuated on adjustment for insulin resistance and other conventional risk factors (Table 4, models 2 5).
The laser power was set at 20% and further attenuated to 20% for the 458 laser and 5% for the 488 and 514 lasers, in order to limit photobleaching and allow the cells to continue to grow during the imaging process.
The expression pattern of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) resembled the expression pattern of CSE: basal levels of HO-1 expression were high in the YGP, were reduced with CAD, and were further attenuated with the combination of CAD and sepsis (p = 0.001; Fig. 1).
Inactivation of INPP1 leads to a reduction in glycolytic intermediates that feed into the synthesis of the oncogenic signaling lipid lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), which in turn impairs LPA signaling and further attenuates glycolytic metabolism in a feed-forward mechanism to impair cancer cell motility, invasiveness, and tumorigenicity.
Recently, a model based on experimental evidence was suggested to explain this relation between GBA and α-synuclein: glysocylceramide (GlcCer), the substrate to GBA, can stabilize α-synuclein oligomers which in turn inhibit GBA function, cause GlcCer accumulation and further attenuate α-synuclein aggregation [ 51, 52 ].
The association was attenuated after adjustment for diabetes risk factors and histories of high cholesterol and hypertension (unpooled HR 1.30 [95% CI 1.14 1.49]) and was further attenuated by controlling for updated BMI (HR 1.17 [95% CI 1.09 1.25]).
RPA32 phosphorylation was reduced when CtIP was knocked down by siRNA and was further attenuated by SFN treatment (Fig. S5 ).
In fact, our data showed that cotreatment of testosterone and letrozole further attenuated A β-induced reduction in FM probe fluorescent intensity.
