SES = social rank according to ABEP classification

OR = odds ratio estimate from conditional form of logistic regression, with age and sex as covariates in the model, where ‘ref’ indicates that the highest social rank served as the reference category for estimation of the odds ratios.

CI = confidence interval

p = p-value under the null hypothesis of no association between SES and drug use occurrence as studied here.
