  1. Abbreviations: FTS, fentanyl test strip. CI; confidence interval
  2. aCoefficients of difference between positive and negative behaviors. Positive values indicate that FTS users perform the type of behavior more often when there is a positive FTS result compared to a negative result
  3. bAdjusted models include indicators for site, race/ethnicity, age, gender, drug of choice, indicator of polysubstance use, times used per day, and lifetime overdose count
