"descending effect" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
You can use it to describe a phenomenon in which an event, action, or result has a decreasing impact or influence on something. For example, "the increasing use of renewable energy sources is having a descending effect on our carbon emissions."
In addition, different values of powder volume, aggregate volume and paste content in the mixture reveal different ascending and descending effects on the compressive strength.
Although the role of the SEG in the regulation of insect locomotion is, to date, still unclear, some previous evidence suggests that it exerts a permissive descending tonic effect on thoracic motor centers (see [24] and references therein).
The activation of thick myelinated ergoreceptor nerve fibers (via activation of percutaneous mechanoreceptors and proprioceptors) can alter the transmission of ascending nociceptive information via small diameter Aδ fibers and give rise to a descending inhibitory effect that allows modulation of pain perception [ 7, 36].
a Repeated measures ANOVA b Dominance effect: right handed vs. left handed; Phase effect: humeral ascending and descending phases; Group effect: neck pain on dominant side/non-dominant side/both sides *: P value < 0.05 The EMG activities of the sternocleidomastoid and upper trapezius muscles increased with the arm ascending movement and vice versa (Table 4, Figure 5 and 6).
As coasting can be applied more extensively on line sections with descending slopes, the effect of hybridisation in these cases is generally stronger than on line sections with ascending slopes.
Conversely, there was evidence (P<0.05) that women had lower risk of emergency presentation compared with men for five cancers – namely, in descending order of effect size, oropharyngeal, oral, Hodgkin's lymphoma, melanoma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (odds ratios for women vs men ranging from 0.49 to 0.88 for oropharyngeal and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, respectively).
These conclusions also point to the importance of the integrity of mammillary body neurons, especially as the surgical procedure with the smallest behavioural effect (descending postcommissural fornix lesion) does not appear to cause cell loss and atrophy within the mammillary bodies (Loftus et al., 2000; Vann, 2009).
There was evidence (P<0.05) that women had greater risk of emergency presentation than men for seven cancers – namely, in descending order of effect size, bladder, brain, rectal, liver, stomach, colon and lung cancer (odds ratios for women vs men ranging from 1.50 to 1.05 for bladder and lung cancer, respectively; Figure 1A).
A good-size audience coped happily with music of extremes (from spartan to hedonistic) and tried to ignore a series of wan little visual effects (descending streamers, scarflike strands whirling on ceiling fans).
Fassbender does his best to hold it all together, chewing a toothpick to unconvincingly hardboiled effect before descending into snot-bubbling desperation and grief.
