Adjusted associations between all-cause and CVD mortality and measures of population density change and greenspace
| All-cause mortality | CVD mortality | |
| Incident rate ratio (95% CI), p value | ||
| Population density decile 2000–2008 | ||
| Stable (reference) | ||
| ≥1 decile increase | 0.911 (0.871 to 0.953), p<0.001 | 0.889 (0.839 to 0.941), p<0.001 |
| ≥1 decile decrease | 1.030 (0.961 to 1.104), p=0.406 | 1.056 (0.967 to 1.153), p=0.226 |
| Greenspace indicators | ||
| Green urban percentage | 0.998 (0.996 to 1.000), p=0.036 | 0.998 (0.995 to 1.000), p=0.021 |
| Urban park percentage | 1.000 (0.997 to 1.002), p=0.872 | 1.001 (0.998 to 1.004), p=0.631 |
| Rural green percentage | 0.997 (0.996 to 0.999), p<0.001 | 0.998 (0.996 to 0.999), p=0.006 |
Models adjusted for year, gender, age group, mean disposable income, foreign born percentage, higher education percentage and parish population density mean. Dense urban percentage is not included here because its value for each parish obtains from a linear combination of the remaining three land use indicators.
CVD, cardiovascular disease.
