b
RPC was calculated by dividing 2014–2006 rates by 2006 rates and is based on the rate per 100,000 persons.
c
Standardized by age to the 2010 US Census population distribution among adults aged ≥35 years. The crude age–sex specific rates were reported for subgroup estimate.
d
P <.05 for trend from 2006 through 2014 based on Joinpoint analyses.
