Footnotes:
The APC is the Annual Percent Change over the time interval.
a Rates are age-adjusted to the 2000 US Std Population (19 age groups - Census P25-1130). Trends are based on rates age-adjusted to the 2000 US Std Population (19 age groups - Census P25-1130).
b Incidence data used in calculating the rates and trends are from the SEER 18 areas (San Francisco, Connecticut, Detroit, Hawaii, Iowa, New Mexico, Seattle, Utah, Atlanta, San Jose-Monterey, Los Angeles, Alaska Native Registry, Rural Georgia, California excluding SF/SJM/LA, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Jersey and Georgia excluding ATL/RG).
- Statistic not shown. Rate based on less than 16 cases for the time interval. Trend based on less than 10 cases for at least one year within the time interval.
* The APC is significantly different from zero (p<.05).
