Overall, 85.9% of patients met criteria for DSM-5 AUD, whereas 73.3% met criteria for DSM-IV AUD. Of those with DSM-IV AUD, 81% met criteria for dependence and 19% for abuse alone. Table 2 shows the number of patients in each of the 4 mutually exclusive diagnostic groups: 13.8% met neither DSM-IV nor DSM-5 criteria for AUD; 0.3% met criteria for DSM-IV AUD alone, 12.8% met criteria for DSM-5 AUD alone, and 73.0% met criteria for both DSM-IV and DSM-5 AUD. The lone patient meeting criteria for DSM-IV AUD alone endorsed alcohol use despite social/interpersonal problems (1 of the 4 DSM-IV abuse criteria). Of note, in sensitivity analyses, 32 of 39 (82%) patients who met criteria for DSM-5 AUD alone still met DSM-5 criteria using only 10 DSM-5 criteria (craving question omitted because it asked about a time frame “ever” rather than past year).Table 2Comparison of DSM-IV and DSM-5 alcohol use disorderDSM-5 diagnosisNoYesTotaln(%)n(%)n(%)DSM-IV diagnosis No42(97.7)39(14.9)81(26.6) Yes1(2.3)222(86.1)223(73.3)Total43(14.1)a 261(85.9)a 304(100.0) aDesignates row percentages (the remainder of percentages in this table are column percentages)
