Figure 5 compares the burden of cannabis dependence to other substance use disorders in GBD 2010. Cannabis dependence was the only substance for which there were no attributable deaths and hence zero YLLs. Globally, it accounted for more DALYs than cocaine dependence, but fewer than the other drug use disorders.
