Health and wellbeing statistics (GP-level, England): Missing data and potential outliers

SUMMARY To be viewed in combination with the following datasets and their accompanying metadata: - Levels of obesity, inactivity and associated illnesses (England): Summary -Levels of obesity and inactivity related illnesses (physical and mental illnesses): Summary -Levels of obesity and inactivity related illnesses (physical illnesses only): Summary -Obesity in adults (ages 18+) -Depression in adults (aged 18+) -Asthma (in persons of all ages) -Cancer (in persons of all ages) -Chronic kidney disease (in adults aged 18+) -Coronary heart disease (in persons of all ages) -Diabetes mellitus (in persons aged 17+) -Hypertension (in persons of all ages) -Stroke and transient ischaemic attack (in persons of all ages) For the aforementioned analyses, GP data for the financial year 1st April 2018 – 31st March 2019 was used in preference to data for the financial year 1st April 2019 – 31st March 2020, as the onset of the COVID19 pandemic during the latter year could have affected the reporting of medical statistics by GPs. However, for 53 GPs (out of 7670) that did not submit data in 2018/19, data from 2019/20 was used instead. Note also that some GPs (997 out of 7670) did not submit data in either year. This dataset identifies areas where data from 2019/20 was used, where one or more GPs did not submit data in either year, or where there were large discrepancies between the 2018/19 and 2019/20 data (differences in statistics that were > mean +/- 1 St.Dev.), which suggests erroneous data in one of those years (it was not feasible for this study to investigate this further), and thus where data should be interpreted with caution.
