a

crude model adjusts for analytical year only (the calendar match of cases and controls)

b

state-level model adjusts for census region and presence of “proactive” prescription monitoring programs.

c

individual-level model adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, sex, marital status, education, and poverty status.
