10.3.9 Mortality in Relation to Deprivation
The directly standardised mortality rates for deaths from diabetes for those persons
aged less than 75 years is given in Figure 223 for Hull (for the period 2007 to 2009). It
can be seen that the width of the confidence intervals is wide due to the small number of
deaths that occur under the age of 75 years where the primary cause of death is
diabetes. The underlying data are given in the APPENDIX on page 926.

10.3.10 Prevalence, Inpatient Admissions and Mortality in Relation to
Deprivation
Table 270 gave the prevalence of diabetes on the practice registers and Table 273
compared the number of people on these registers with the PBS modelled number at
practice level, and Figure 222 and Figure 223 have compared inpatient admissions and
mortality relating to diabetes across the deprivation quintiles. This information has been
presented for Hull using the local deprivation quintiles and for mortality where diabetes
was the primary cause of death. A comparison of prevalence, inpatient admissions and
mortality could be undertaken. Combining the most and second most deprived quintiles
and the least deprived and second least deprived quintiles together, the prevalence was
approximately 27% higher for the most deprived areas, inpatient admissions were
approximately 127% higher and mortality was approximately double (100% higher).
This suggests that there is inequalities present, i.e. whilst the prevalence is higher, the
