研究目的：研究子宫颈筛查覆盖面不平等的变化及其与初级保健组织方面和子宫颈发病率和死亡率不平等的关系。设计：回顾性分析1991-2001年英国宫颈癌筛查覆盖率和宫颈癌发病率及死亡率的时间趋势。背景：根据1999年划定的边界，英格兰99个地区卫生当局被用来编制每10万人中宫颈癌发病率和死亡率的时间序列。60个地区卫生当局的子集被用来构建筛查覆盖率数据和GP和实践特征的时间序列。根据汤森剥夺指数，卫生当局被划分为三个“剥夺”群体之一。参与者：老年女性
Study objectives: To examine changing inequality in the coverage of cervical screening and its relation to organisational aspects of primary care and to inequality in cervical cancer incidence and mortality.Design: Retrospective time trends analysis (1991-2001) of screening coverage and cervical cancer incidence and mortality in England.Setting: The 99 district health authorities in England, as defined by 1999 boundaries were used to create a time series of incidence and mortality rates from cervical cancer per 100 000 population. A subset of 60 district health authorities were used to construct a time series of screening coverage data and GP and practice characteristics. Health authorities were categorised into one of three "deprivation" groups using the Townsend Deprivation Index.Participants: Women aged
