Footnotes

  1. A person may have more than one diabetes diagnosis within the National Diabetes Audit. In this case, an algorithm is used to derive the best diagnosis date and diabetes type for each person. This is used in the analysis above.
  2. Disclosure control has been applied to all figures, as per the National Diabetes Audit publication – all numbers are rounded to the nearest five, unless the number is one to seven, in which case it is rounded to ‘5’.
  3. Locations are represented in the National Diabetes Audit dataset using the Lower Layer Super Output Area (LSOA) of the person in the audit year. A direct mapping of these geographies to a specific Westminster Parliamentary Constituencies does not exist, meaning while the figures provided for Weaver Vale are likely close to the true value, they should not be considered exact.
