Standardised registration ratio for colorectal cancers

Methodology:

Indirectly age-sex standardised ratios (number of new cases as a percentage of expected new cases), calculated relative to England.

Expected number of new cases of colorectal cancer (ICD10 C18-C20) calculated by applying age-specific registration rates for England in the latest 5 years to each area's population.

SRRs calculated by dividing the observed total number of new cases in the area by the expected number and multiplying by 100.

Confidence Limits:

Confidence limits provide an indication of the reliability of a result.

The 95% confidence intervals provide a range within which there is 95% chance of the true result lying.

Confidence intervals were calculated using Byar's Method as described in APHO Technical Briefing 3: Commonly used public health measures and their confidence intervals.
