Table 238 gives under 75 SMRs for cancer for Hull and comparators for 2006-2008.
The premature cancer mortality rate is 29% higher in Hull compared to England, which
is one of the highest of the comparator areas. There are relatively small differences in
the SMRs between men and women in Hull. So whilst the age-specific mortality rates
as illustrated in Table 235 are higher for men aged 65-74 years and 75+ years
compared to women, both men and women fair equally poorly in relation to England.
Furthermore, the mortality rates for men and women in Hull are higher than the
Industrial Hinterlands and the average of the 10 comparators.

The trends in the under 75 SMRs at ward, Area and Locality level are available for 1999-
2001 to 2007-2009 for cancer on the Hull Atlas (which can be found at
www.hullpublichealth.org/Pages/hull_atlas.htm).
The trends in the directly standardised mortality rates (DSRs) per 100,000 persons for
cancer for Hull and comparator areas is given in Figure 197. This figure refers to
deaths for persons aged under 75 years as the LAA target relates to under 75 years
(see section 10.2.1.15 on page 530). Hull has (relatively consistently) had higher
premature mortality rates for cancer than its comparators between 1993-95 and 2006-
08. The underlying data are given in the APPENDIX on page 912.
