Based on month of birth, the Edwards' test showed significant sinusoidal variation for three of the four selected groups (astrocytoma, P =0.05; astrocytoma and ependymoma, P =0.05; other astrocytoma and ependymoma, P =0.03) and borderline significance for ependymoma ( P =0.10) and other astrocytoma ( P =0.06).
