Past-year smoking prevalence was 63·3% (95% CI=59·7-66·8) among those at risk of alcohol dependence, 18·7% (95% CI=18·4-18·9) among drinkers not at risk of alcohol dependence, and 19·2% (95% CI=18·8-19·7) among non-drinkers from 2014 to 2021. Predicted values for past-year smoking prevalence rates are modelled, adjusted for survey year, across the full range of AUDIT scores among drinkers and presented in Table 1 and Figure 1.Table 1Prevalence of past-year and current smoking among drinkers (weighted n=103,162) by AUDIT score (predicted values).Table 1AUDIT scorePast-year smoking prevalence, % (95% CI)Current smoking prevalence, % (95% CI)515·4 (14·9, 16·0)13·8 (13·3, 14·3)1028·1 (27·3, 28·9)25·1 (24·3, 25·9)1542·3 (41·0, 43·6)38·0 (36·8, 39·3)2054·8 (52·9, 56·7)49·8 (47·9, 51·7)2564·5 (61·3, 67·6)59·1 (55·9, 62·2)3071·6 (66·8, 75·9)66·1 (61·2, 70·8)35a76·9 (70·5, 82·2)71·5 (64·6, 77·5)4081·1 (73·2, 87·0)75·9 (67·2, 82·8aMean prevalence rate of AUDIT scores 34 and 36 taken as no respondent existed with an AUDIT score of 35 (adjusted for survey year, holding it constant at 2020 for purposes of prediction).
