Notes: No. = number; ERR = event rate ratio; CI = confidence interval. Bold indicates the effects of interest when significant. Day type is coded 1 = simultaneous use, 0 = alcohol-only use; sex is coded 0 = female, 1 = male; weekend is coded 0 = Sunday–Thursday, 1 = Friday or Saturday; nicotine use is coded 1 = yes, 0 = no; other drug use is coded 1 = yes, 0 = no.
