In addition, the time trend was also significant, reflecting a decreasing trend in non-unions after withdrawal of specific COX-2 inhibitors compared to the period of their prevalent use (p < 0.001) ( Table 2 ).
In addition, the time trend was also significant, reflecting a decreasing trend in non-unions after withdrawal of specific COX-2 inhibitors compared to the period of their prevalent use (p < 0.001) ( Table 2 ).
However, the time trend since introduction of COX-2 selective inhibitors was significant, indicating an increasing trend during prevalent use of COX-2 selective inhibitors relative to the baseline period ( Figure 6 ).
