Figure 70 and Figure 71 show trends, for men and women respectively, in all cause
under 75 standardised mortality ratios for Hull and comparator areas by national
deprivation quintiles of IMD 2007. The underlying data are given in the APPENDIX on
page 852 and page 853 respectively.
Looking first at residents living in areas that lie within the most deprived 20% of areas in
England, which for Hull amounts to more than half of all residents, there was a
decreasing trend in under 75 SMRs for men in Hull until 2005-2007, followed by an
increase for 2006-2008. While a similar increase was seen for North East Lincolnshire
each other comparator saw the decreases continue into 2006-08. Together with smaller
decreases in Hull than in comparator areas, this meant that in 2006-2008 the under 75
SMR for Hull‟s most deprived men was higher than each comparator, excluding North
East Lincolnshire, and statistically significantly higher than for spearhead PCTs and the
20 most deprived PCTs. For men in the second most deprived and middle quintiles,
Hull saw decreasing trends in under 75 all cause SMRs in men, with SMRs lower for
each year among Hull men in the second most deprived national quintile than for each
comparator area while, in the middle quintile, Hull‟s SMR was the same as the 20 most
deprived PCTs until 2003-2005 and then it decreased rapidly to end the period lower
than each comparator, and statistically significant lower than each except the 20 most
deprived PCTs. The variability for Hull men in the second least deprived quintile (Hull‟s
least deprived national quintile) is due to the relatively small numbers of death in this
group, which accounts for only 8% of Hull‟s population and 4% of under 75 deaths.
