Figure 3. The association between ASDR in 1990, SDI in 2019, and the EAPC of ASDR from 1990 to 2019. (A) ASDR in 1990 and the EAPC of ASDR from 1990 to 2019; (B) SDI in 2019 and the EAPC of ASDR from 1990 to 2019. The blue line was an adaptive association fitted with adaptive Loess regression based on all data points.
