Associations between ALDH2 status and other substance-related outcomes^*.

	N	ALDH2
		β/OR	SE	p-value
Binary measures
Ever regular smoker	320	0.98	0.32	0.95
Marijuana ever	357	0.66	0.18	0.13
Illegal drug ever	162	0.61	0.28	0.29
Continuous measures
Cigarettes per daya	698	−0.05	0.06	0.41
Marijuana usesa	704	0.06	0.08	0.28
Illegal drug classes	284	0.02	0.09	0.86

Note. All models included ALDH2 genotype, sex, age at assessment (linear and quadratic term; or year of birth for lifetime measures) as fixed effects along with random intercept per individual and slope for age. ALDH2 genotypes of A/A or A/G (i.e., at least one protective allele) are coded as 1. β = standardized coefficient; OR = odds ratios; SE = standard error

^adenotes variables that were log transformed prior to analysis

^*denotes p-values below the corrected threshold of 0.005.
