Figure Lengend Snippet: Multivariable-adjusted trends in sex-, race- and urbanization-adjusted age-standardized mortality of alcoholic liver disease among U.S. adults by age group during 1999-2017 and beyond. There was a changing point of the trends in all age groups (vertical line, 2006) during 1999-2017. For data points in the years after 2017 (dash line), the ratios of male/female, white/non-white and metropolitan/non-metropolitan were assumed similar to those in 2017, and used for respective mortality prediction. Analysis was limited to adults aged 25+ years.
Article Snippet: We then used multivariable piecewise log-linear models to adjust covariables (Stata, version 15) as described before [ 5 , 10 - 14 ].
