目的：确定酒精使用障碍识别测试（AUDIT） 10项问卷的截止点，在斯里兰卡样本中区分危险饮酒（HZD）和酒精使用障碍（AUD）与低风险饮酒（LRD），以及AUD与HZD和LRD的已婚男性。方法：采用62名低风险饮酒者和88名危险饮酒者和AUD，将审计工具与饮料特异性、数量-频率问卷的改编和翻译版本以及复合国际诊断访谈（CIDI）的酒精使用模块进行比较，并绘制两条受试者工作特征（ROC）曲线。结果：区分HZD + AUD与LRD、AUD与HZD + LRD的ROC曲线下面积分别为0.96 （95% CI: 0.94-0.99）和0.97 （95% CI: 0.95-0.99）。截止值7和16被观察到在敏感性、特异性、正似然比与负似然比和阳性预测值之间具有最佳的权衡。结论：该方法可用于筛查斯里兰卡僧伽罗已婚男性的LRD、HZD和AUD。
Aims: To determine cut-offs for the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) 10-item questionnaire, differentiating hazardous drinking (HZD) and alcohol use disorders (AUD) from low risk drinking (LRD), and AUD from HZD and LRD among married men in a Sri Lankan sample. Methods: Using 62 low risk drinkers and 88 each from hazardous drinkers and AUD, the AUDIT instrument was compared with adapted and translated versions of a beverage-specific, quantity-frequency questionnaire, and the alcohol use module of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI), and two receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted. Results: The area under the ROC curves to differentiate HZD + AUD from LRD and AUD from HZD + LRD were 0.96 (95% CI: 0.94-0.99) and 0.97 (95% CI: 0.95-0.99) respectively. The cut-off values of 7 and 16 were observed to have the best trade-offs between sensitivity, specificity, the ratio of positive likelihood to negative likelihood ratios, and positive predictive values. Conclusion: The AUDIT could be used to screen for LRD, HZD, and AUD among Sinhalese married men in Sri Lanka.
