Interpretation of Workplace Tests for Cannabinoids
Open accessAbstract
Workplace urine drug testing for an inactive THC metabolite is common in both federally regulated and non-regulated drug testing. A positive result does not document impairment, or even recent use, when impairment is likely the most important parameter being searched for by the drug testing procedure. Most cannabinoid testing does not detect imported synthetics. Currently, urine is the most widely tested matrix, but blood, plasma, oral fluid, and hair may also be accepted in federally regulated testing in the future. This article will discuss the history, the status quo, and the possible near term future of workplace testing for marijuana in employees.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The paper says inhaled cannabis must be stopped before lung transplant.
“Inhaled cannabis use must be ceased prior to lung transplant.(115–119)”
From Consensus document for the selection of lung transplant candidates: An update from the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation. (2021) · cites this paper as [119]
The Introduction says the paper addresses workplace cannabinoid testing, and the Conclusions discuss testing for workplace impairment. Searches for lung transplantation and pre-transplant cessation found no passage addressing whether inhaled cannabis must be stopped before a lung transplant. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
