Case-Control Analyses:
Within Caucasian and Hispanic subjects:
Patients with CD 92 (31.9) 114 (39.6) 82 (28.5) 288
Controls without CD
χ2=7.93; p=0.02
44 (31.4) 72 (51.4) 24 (17.1) 140
Patients with AUD 81 (34.3) 89 (37.7) 66 (28.0) 236
Controls without AUD
χ2=5.3; p=0.07
47 (34.3) 65 (47.4) 25 (18.2) 137
Patients with AD 36 (36.4) 39 (39.4) 24 (24.2) 99
Controls without AD
χ2=1.91; p=0.39
47 (34.3) 65 (47.4) 25 (18.2) 137
Case-Control Power Analyses:
# of patients # of controls Odds Ratio
1.02 2.00 3.90
288 140 5% 82% 99%
236 137 5% 75% 99%

CD = at least 3 DSM-III-R conduct disorder criteria (lifetime); AD = DSM-IV-defined alcohol dependence (lifetime); AUD = DSM-IV-defined alcohol use disorder (lifetime); note that multiple sibs are present for some families. Power calculations assume: 1) population prevalence of disease = 0.1; (2) α = 0.05; an A-allele frequency of 0.53;(4) disease locus = marker locus; and (5) a dominant model.
