Alcohol Intake, Stress, and Oral Health in 99 Treatment-Seeking Individuals with AUD

Chelsea B. Crayton's dataset from a retrospective analysis of 99 treatment-seeking inpatients with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). It examines associations between alcohol consumption, perceived stress, adverse childhood experiences, and oral health outcomes, specifically periodontal disease severity and oral pain. The data was last updated on 2026-05-08.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between years of heavy drinking and periodontal disease severity based on the described association.
• Investigating the link between perceived stress scores and oral health outcomes as mentioned in the study results.
• Analyzing the association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and reported oral pain.
• Examining the role of smoking as a covariate in models predicting oral pain in individuals with AUD.

Strengths

• Includes data from 99 individuals with AUD, a specific clinical population.
• Contains multivariable models adjusted for demographic and clinical covariates.
• Results show specific statistical associations (e.g., p < .001 for stress and PD severity).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The retrospective design and limited sample size are noted as limitations in the source description.
• Data on oral hygiene practices, diet, and access to dental care were not available.
