DSM-5 AUD at time 1 and time 2, and (2) remitted AUD: no longer met criteria for active DSM-5 AUD at time 2. The AUD and remission phenotypes were based on information from two consecutive interviews. Both continued AUD and remitted AUD met criteria for current AUD at the first interview, defined as the presence of two or more AUD criteria within the previous 12 months. Remission at the second interview was defined as the absence of all AUD criteria other than craving for at least 12 months and either low-risk drinking or abstinence (n = 688, 413 males, 275 females, mean age at initial visit: 30.62 ± 9.41, mean number of years between visits = 4.6 ± 1.7). The continued AUD group met criteria for current AUD at both interviews (n = 688, 413 males, 275 females, mean age: 30.79 ± 9.36, mean number of years between visits = 4.8 ± 1.6). The analysis was done on the data collected during the first visit to predict remission status at the second visit. In a series of analyses, the groups were further divided according to ancestry (EA, AA) and sex (male, female). Stratified analysis by ancestry was done twice: once
