  • Increased hospitalizations for cannabis poisoning in children occurred after the legalization of cannabis edibles, despite regulations intended to reduce poisonings.

    “The increased hospitalizations for cannabis poisoning in children occurred after the legalization of cannabis edibles, despite regulations intended to reduce poisonings (e.g. setting a maximum of 10 mg of THC per edible package, plain and child‐resistant packaging and consumer education campaigns) [38].”
  • Before legalization, paediatric cannabis intoxication hospitalization rates were similar in Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec (0.95 per 100 000 person-years in the first three versus 0.93 per 100 000 person-years in Quebec).

    “Before legalization, hospitalization rates were similar in the four provinces (0.95 per 100 000 person‐years in the first three versus 0.93 per 100 000 person‐years in Quebec).”
  • In the second period, paediatric cannabis intoxication hospitalization rate in Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario was 7.15 per 100 000 person-years, 7.5 times higher than before legalization, and in Quebec was 2.82 per 100 000 person-years, 3.0 times higher than before legalization.

    “In the second period, the hospitalization rate in Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario (7.15 per 100 00 person‐years) was 7.5 times higher than before legalization, and the hospitalization rate in Quebec (2.82 per 100 000 person‐years) was 3.0 times higher than before legalization.”
  • Paediatric cannabis intoxication hospitalization rates were 2.6 times higher in all four provinces during the first period of legalization.

    “Hospitalization rates were 2.6 times higher in all provinces during the first period of legalization.”

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.
