The overall prevalence of adverse events associated with delta-8-THC and cannabis reported on FAERS were similar when analyzed by MedDRA System Organ Class. Note: each dot is the number of all AE reports associated with delta-8-THC (y-axis) or cannabis (x-axis) in FAERS labeled with each MedDRA SOC divided by the total number of AE reports associated with delta-8-THC or cannabis respectively. For instance, psychiatric disorders were the most prevalent AE reported for both delta-8-THC and cannabis cases, being reported by 66.0% of all delta-8-THC AEs reports and 65.2% of all cannabis AE reports in FAERS (highlighted in orange). The line represents the linear correlation in the prevalence of each SOCs between the two samples and is summarized with a Pearson’s r statistic. Abbreviations: AE = adverse event; r/Delta8 = a topically-focused Reddit forum known as a “subreddit” dedicated to discussions of delta-8-THC; FAERS = Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System; MedDRA = Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities; SOC = MedDRA System Organ Class
