Each model includes the following additional covariates: current depressive disorder (DSM-IV TR diagnosis), history of alcohol dependence, LEDD, disease duration, and sex. Odds ratios and confidence intervals represent the exponentiated coefficients and interval endpoints. Z-value was computed as the regression coefficient divided by its standard error.
