Revision History

Date Revision Affected Pages
04/07/2005

Table I-3 was temporarily removed - The Percent Change and APC for 1950-2001 were incorrectly calculated:

  • For incidence data, the yearly rates for 1950-1972 were age-adjusted using the 1970 standard million population, and the remaining years (1973-2001) were age-adjusted using the 2000 standard million population.
  • The mortality trends were based on rates age-adjusted using the 2000 standard million population.
 Temporary removal of:
