CUD = cannabis use disorder; CI = confidence interval; PD = prevalence difference, prevalence of outcome (consequence) among those with CUD minus prevalence of outcome among those without CUD.
adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, education level
Note: Participants with missing responses for an outcome were excluded for that analysis (range of missingness: 0 [0.0%] – 24 [0.63%]).
