SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB
Number: The Effect of Alcohol Intake on
Resilience and Recovery Outcomes
Using Alcohol Flush as an Instrumental
Variable (Alcohol Flush); OMB Control
Number 0720–FLSH.
Needs and Uses: The study’s objective
is to investigate causal models of
alcohol use on resilience measures (e.g.,
posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD]).
This research objective will be
accomplished by (a) collecting a selfreport survey and (b) conducting
genotyping and sequencing of DNA
(potentially up to whole genomic
sequencing) from samples of Active
Duty Service Members (ADSM; ≥21
years old, n=999.). The compelling need
for administration of the survey
component of the Alcohol Flush Study
rests on these four methodological
requirements:
• Concurrent collection of
demographics, research health
information (RHI), and self-reported
alcohol consumption
• Avoid potential statistical
confounding by implementing
systematic data collection across all
participants to address research
questions and perform statistical
modeling,
• Ability to link survey data to
genotyping and sequencing data,
• Ability to re-contact participants for
future research.
This research will deliver a
knowledge product that will inform
policy and practice in the Military
Health System (MHS). We further
expect to identify alcohol as a potential
modifiable risk factor related to PTSD
and other mental health conditions,
which could go beyond the MHS into
embedded mental health services for
prevention and intervention for at-risk
individuals. In the context of Precision
Medicine, this survey establishes a
cohort who may be contacted for
participation in additional research,
tailors medical care to optimize
efficiency, effectiveness, safety, and
patient-centeredness of therapeutic

approaches using genetic profiling. The
long-term impact of this study has the
potential to lower inappropriate
utilization, thus reducing costs while
improving health-related quality of life
and optimizing Readiness.
Information collected in this survey
will be used for research purposes to
fulfill the objectives of this grant-funded
study which aligns to a requirement to
‘‘better understand the impact of alcohol
use on resiliency and recovery.’’ The
findings will be interpreted by a
multidisciplinary team of physicians,
scientists, behavioral psychologists, and
healthcare services researchers to (a)
inform policy and (b) make
recommendations for practice in the
contest of Precision Medicine.
