Without C44 and C77–C79; SRD, standardized rate difference (most vs. least deprived quintile); SRR, standardized rate ratio (most vs. least deprived quintile); SII, Slope index of inequality; RII, relative index of inequality; CI, confidence interval. All measures are age–standardized according to the 2013 European Standard Population.
