a Top 15 cancer sites selected based on 2013-2017 age-adjusted rates for the race/ethnic group.
b Rates are per 100,000 and age-adjusted to the 2000 US Std Population (19 age groups - Census P25-1130).
c The APC is the Annual Percent Change over the time interval. Trends are based on rates age-adjusted to the 2000 US Std Population (19 age groups - Census P25-1130).
d Rates for American Indian/Alaska Native are based on the Purchased/Referred Care Delivery Area (PRCDA) counties.
e Hispanic is not mutually exclusive from whites, blacks, Asian/Pacific Islanders, and American Indians/Alaska Natives.
f The rates for sex-specific cancer sites are calculated using the population for both sexes combined.
g IBD = Intrahepatic Bile Duct. ONS = Other Nervous System.
* The APC is significantly different from zero (p<.05).
- 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.
