Results exclude Grampian health board. RRs are adjusted for sex, age, UK/RoI-born (vs born outside UK/RoI) and socioeconomic status (household tenure and combined individual and household level education) with 95% CIs. RRs (95% CIs): adjustment.

*Results for any mixed background, South Asian (Indian, Pakistan or other) or Chinese ethnic groups are not provided as they are so few as to be potentially disclosive (see the Methods section).
