Using the PHMF and GP registration file (October 2007, 2008 and 2009), the agespecific
mortality rates have been calculated for each Locality (Table 257). The total
number of deaths in Hull over the three year period 2007-2009 was 108 in men and 85
in women.

The figures for Hull differ slightly from the Compendium because different population
estimates have been used, and it is not possible to present the information for all areas
due to small numbers (marked with an asterisk in the table).
The total number of deaths from colorectal cancer for men and women aged under 75
years as well as the directly standardised mortality rates (DSRs) are given in Table 258
for the most recent period 2007-2009. The DSRs are standardised to the European
Standard Population. The confidence intervals are given, and it can be seen that they
are wide for Hull, and even wider for the Localities. For women, there are relatively
minor differences among the Localities. For men, the differences are larger with North
appearing to have a lower DSR compared to East and West. However, as the
confidence intervals are wide, it could well be that any differences observed are
associated with random variation rather than related to true differences in the mortality
rates (there is considerable overlap in the confidence intervals).
