Each row represents a discrete-time survival model of 2 or more PE types (ref: 1 PE type) as predictors of subsequent SU or SUDs. (i) For lifetime substance use, adjusted for other temporally prior substance use and antecedent mental disorders in addition to person-years, age cohorts, sex, and country. (ii) For lifetime substance use disorder, adjusted for other temporally prior substance use, and antecedent mental disorders in addition to person-years, age-cohorts, sex, and country.

Each row represents a discrete-time survival model of more than 0.3 annualized episodes (ref: <= 0.3 episodes) as predictors of subsequent SU or SUDs. (i) For lifetime substance use, adjusted for other temporally prior substance use and antecedent mental disorders in addition to person-years, age cohorts, sex, and country. (ii) For lifetime substance use disorder, adjusted for other temporally prior substance use, and antecedent mental disorders in addition to person-years, age-cohorts, sex, and country.
