  • Note: CI = confidence interval, COPD = chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, OR = odds ratio.

  • * Fixed effects from mixed-effects logistic models. Slope values show change per 30-day interval. Slope change p values are from post-estimation tests of differences in slopes before and after the state of emergency declaration. Specific diagnoses are included in the broader diagnosis categories, and are shown for all conditions with p < 0.05. For other variables, Holm adjustment for multiplicity was applied.

  • Difference between predicted probabilities immediately before and after the state of emergency declaration.

  • Baseline smoking status: daily smoker, occasional smoker, nonsmoker. As an ordinal outcome, expected differences are shown for the occasional and nonsmoker categories.

  • § Alcohol or non-tobacco drug use disorder.

  • Non-tobacco, non-alcohol drug use disorder.
