Change to mapping used for integrated care board (ICB) analysis

An issue was found with the mapping used to define integrated card boards (ICB) in this report resulting in larger than expected cohorts for each ICB. This has been corrected in this report and has resulted in slight changes to the results of analyses broken down by ICB.

Forest plots

The reference groups used in the model are:

Age

40-49 years
Ethnicity White
Deprivation 2nd most deprived
Sex Male
Diabetes duration Duration 15+ years

For each variable the group with the highest count in the 2017-18 type 1 diabetes model has been selected as the reference group for that variable for all models in this report. 

Please see Statistical terms in Additional Information for details of reference groups and interpreting a forest plot.
