p Values show significance of tests for trends over deprivation quintiles (p) and significance of tests of differences in trends over time, from 1981 to 2001, in the least (p₁) and most (p₅) deprived quintile (assessed using the Carstairs score), relative to the population in the middle three quintiles.
