10.9.8 Mortality
As illustrated in Table 340, in Hull during the period 2007-2009, there were twelve
deaths in persons aged under 75 years and 195 deaths in persons aged 75+ years with
the primary cause of death coded as dementia (F00-F03). Over the three year period,
there were over 40 deaths due to mental and behaviour disorders due to psychoactive
substance abuse (F10-F19). These were mainly in the younger age groups. In total, 15
of the deaths were due to alcohol, 11 due to opioids and most of the remaining due to
multiple substances. There were very few deaths from other mental and behavioural
disorders (F20-F99). There were three times the number of substance abuse deaths in
men than women over the three year period, whereas in women there were more than
twice as many deaths from dementia (n=143) than men (n=64).

The total number of deaths from dementia for men and women as well as the directly
standardised mortality rates (DSRs) are given in Table 341 for the most recent period
2007-2009. The DSRs are standardised to the European Standard Population. Given
the relatively wide confidence intervals, no particular Locality appears particularly high or
low in relation to the DSR.

For men, the all ages directly standardised mortality rates (DSR) for substance abuse
were more than twice as high for West Locality (8.8 deaths per 100,000 European
Standard Population; 95% CI 10.7 to 23.1) than for the other localities. Across Hull the
substance abuse all ages DSR for men was 7.7 (95% CI 5.2 to 10.8) compared to 2.5
