¹Data are presented as count numbers followed by percentages of the count numbers from the total cases of hepatocellular carcinoma in the database.

²Time-trends were computed using Joinpoint Regression Program (version 5.0.2, National Cancer Institute) with 3 maximum joinpoints allowed (4-line segments).

³A negative value indicates a greater average annual percentage change in women compared to men.

⁴Tests whether incidence trends were identical. A significant P-value indicates that the trends were not identical (i.e., they had different incidence rates and coincidence was rejected).

⁵Tests whether incidence trends were parallel. A significant P-value indicates that the trends were not parallel (i.e., parallelism was rejected).

^aP < 0.05.

APC: Annual percentage change; AAPC: Average annual percentage change.
