  1. CI=confidence interval.
  2. Survival estimated with cohort or complete approach (see Rachet et al, 2008).
  3. Mean absolute change (%) in the deprivation gap in survival every 5 years, adjusted for the underlying trend in survival (see Rachet et al, 2008).
  4. Survival estimated with hybrid approach (see Rachet et al, 2008). **P<0.01.
