One-month repeatability of alcohol metabolism, sensitivity and acute tolerance

Abstract

Subjects (N = 34) in the Colorado Alcohol Research on Twins and Adoptees (CARTA) were brought back between 30 and 60 days after their initial testing to be retested on all the CARTA procedures. As before, subjects were given a dose of alcohol (.8 g/kg of body weight) calculated to bring their blood alcohol level (BAL) to near 100 mg/dl. Additional doses were given at the end of each of the next 2 hours to maintain their BAL near peak for approximately 3 hours. Repeatability (test-retest correlation) for alcohol clearance rate was near 0, with repeatabilities between .40 and .55 for peak BAL, time-to-peak BAL, average session BAL and relative volume of alcohol distribution. Repeatabilities of prealcohol baseline scores were generally high (median, .71) for the CARTA battery of physiological, motor coordination, perceptual speed and reaction time measures, but were only low to moderate for sensitivity scores (median, .27) and acute tolerance scores (median, .25) calculated on these measures. There was some evidence that repeatabilities for alcohol metabolism, sensitivity and acute tolerance were lower for women than for men.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
