Note: Risk ratio was calculated in comparison to
“normal weight” as the reference group.
Boldface indicates statistical significance through
two-tailed Fisher exact test, p <0.05.
Regular Cannabis Use RR compares risks of BMI
categories Underweight, Overweight and Obese to Normal Weight between regular
cannabis users and never cannabis users.
Alcohol Use RR compares risks of BMI categories
Underweight, Overweight, and Obese to Normal Weight between heavy alcohol users
and abstainers.
