a decreasing trendp = 0.11
When researchers took a dynamic perspective on the age-standardized rate (ASR) of nerve injury incidence across different regions during the period from 1990 to 2021, AAPC showed a decreasing trend in nearly 90% of regions, with Eastern sub-Saharan Africa [−3.26 (95% UI: −7.06−−0.71), p = 0.11], Andean Latin America [−1.33 (95% UI: −1.52 − 1.14), p < 0.01], and high-income North America [−1.31% (95% UI: −1.56 − 1.06), p < 0.01] being the three regions where AAPC declined by more than 1.3.
