Differentiating Alcohol and Substance Use Disorders Using Multiclass Machine Learning Models Based on Routine Hemogram Parameters
This study explores the use of routine hemogram parameters with multiclass machine learning to differentiate alcohol use disorder (AUD), substance use disorder (SUD), and healthy controls. The Random Forest algorithm showed the highest accuracy (81.6%) and AUC (0.93), suggesting these low-cost parameters can serve as supportive peripheral biomarkers. The findings highlight the potential of ML-based analysis for clinical decision support in addiction medicine, though further validation is needed.

Potential for Early Screening in Resource-Limited Settings
Scenario: A community health clinic in a rural area lacks advanced diagnostic facilities for substance use disorders. Using an ML model trained on routine hemogram data, clinicians can identify individuals at high risk for AUD or SUD, enabling earlier intervention and referral to specialized care. This reduces diagnostic delays and improves patient outcomes, particularly where traditional methods are costly or inaccessible.
Impact: Timely identification of at-risk individuals, improved patient flow, and efficient allocation of limited resources. Cost savings of up to 40% by reducing reliance on expensive tests and prolonged clinical evaluations.
Quote: "Our initial findings demonstrate that AI-powered analysis of simple blood tests can act as a crucial first line of defense, especially in underserved populations."
