Footnotes:

The APC is the Annual Percent Change over the time interval.

a SEER 9 areas (San Francisco, Connecticut, Detroit, Hawaii, Iowa, New Mexico, Seattle, Utah, and Atlanta).

b International Classification of Childhood Cancer is based on ICD-O-3. Steliarova-Foucher E, Stiller C, Lacour B, Kaatsch P. International Classification of Childhood Cancer, Third Edition. Cancer. April 1, 2005: Vol 103, No. 7 , pg 1457-1467.

c Classifications are shown for invasive cases only except as noted. For ICCC groups and subgroups that include in situ behavior, only invasive cases are shown except as noted.

d Includes in situ urinary bladder tumors.

* The APC is significantly different from zero (p<.05)

# The APC for 1994-2012 is significantly different from the APC for 1975-1993 (p<.05).

@ The APC for 1994-2012 is significantly different from the APC for 1975-1993 (p<.10).

- Statistic could not be calculated. Trend based on less than 10 cases for at least one year within the time interval.

Neoplasms are abbreviated as neo. Tumors are abbreviated as tum.
