The phrase "at increasing steps" is not standard in written English and may cause confusion.
It could be used when describing a process or progression that occurs in gradual increments, but it would be clearer to use a more common expression.
Example: "The project will be implemented at increasing steps to ensure thorough evaluation at each stage."
Alternatives: "in gradual increments" or "in successive stages".
Artificial pacing was performed, by repeated intermittent sequences of pacing for 30 s, at increasing steps of 20 bpm, till the maximum tolerated BP fall, or the loss of 1 1 ventricular capture.
For this purpose, blood samples of 0.5 mL at increasing steps from 5 sec to 5 min were collected from the carotid artery, centrifuged, counted in a well-type counter (Compugamma CS Universal Gamma Counter, LKB), and cross-calibrated with the image data from the PET scanner.
This data was obtained for the original model and for models in which one parameter at a time was changed in increasing steps (see Methods for details).
Numerical simulations predict an improvement in pump performance with increasing step height, at a given frequency and voltage, up to an optimal step height, which qualitatively matches the trend observed in experiment.
We observed bleaching-orders of three and four for eGFP and two and three for Hoechst increasing step-wise at a certain wavelength.
The melting curve analysis of the primers was conducted at 60 95 °C, with a temperature increasing step of 0.06 °C/s (five acquisitions per degree of Celsius) at the end of each run.
In the PAT, acupuncture stimulation at GV20 significantly increased step-through latency in the memory retention trial following chronic SCO administration.
The kinetics of catalytic reaction and of catalyst deactivation have been studied by conducting a series of consecutive tests at increasing temperatures in steps of 20 °C and monitoring the evolution of the reaction for periods of 30 min on stream at each temperature, with full product analysis every 3 min.
Using again the example of a paleomagnetic direction, the moments of the natural remanent magnetization (NRM) of the sediment at increasing alternating field steps used to calculate the ChRM are not reported.
The filling ratios at the constant pressure step were larger than those in the increasing pressure step because of the high averaged imprinting velocity in the constant pressure step (Note that results at increasing and constant pressure steps mean the filling ratios at the step which the pressure increases until 12.5 bar and which maintained 12.5 bar for 1 s) [19].
Results indicate the agent was accepted and liked, and was significantly more efficacious at increasing physical activity (daily steps walked) than the control.
