a significant trendno p-value reported
In our analysis, we estimated a significant trend with excess mortality for increasing levels of deprivation, with an approximately doubling in the excess morality risk in the most deprived quintile versus the least, which compared closely with the OpenSAFELY estimates for COVID-19 death, either age-sex or fully adjusted [ 6 ].

a clear trendno p-value reported
While 2020 mortality showed a clear trend with IMD, this was not too dis-similar to the usual trend, and as a result only the EMR for the most deprived quintile (EMR = 2.05, 95%CI 1.76–2.38) was significantly slightly higher than expected (UMR = 1.70, 95%CI 1.65–1.75).
