Note: CI = confidence interval, OR = odds ratio.

^*Subgroup models contain all variables included in overall analysis, with the exception that models for “breast, obstetrics, and gynecology” and “spontaneous abortion” use only data relating to female patients and therefore do not adjust for the effect of sex.

^†For example, opioid poisonings or behavioural issues related to opioid use disorder.
