A, The average annual percentage change in men increased at a greater rate compared with women (0.92% vs 0.62%, respectively; P < .001 indicating nonequal trends) among people older than 55 years. B, The average annual percentage change in women relatively increased at a greater rate compared with men (1.93% vs 0.77%, respectively; P = .002 indicating nonequal trends) among people younger than 55 years. C, The average annual percentage change in women relatively increased at a higher rate compared with men (1.56% vs 0.65%, respectively; P = .004 indicating nonequal trends) among people aged 35 to 54 years. D, The average annual percentage change in women relatively increased at a greater rate compared with men (7.68% vs 4.20%, respectively; P = .01 indicating nonequal trends) among people aged 15 to 34 years.
