US Egg Consumption per Person vs US Resident Patent Applications
US Egg Consumption per Person and US Resident Patent Applications correlate at r = +0.38 over 42 years (1980–2021), p = 0.013. With the time trend removed, r = +0.26. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.013) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.26). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
