There are reliable tests for the actual use of alcohol, one common test being that of blood alcohol content (BAC).[110] These tests do not differentiate alcoholics from non-alcoholics; however, long-term heavy drinking does have a few recognizable effects on the body, including:[111] Macrocytosis (enlarged MCV) Elevated GGT Moderate elevation of AST and ALT and an AST: ALT ratio of 2:1 High carbohydrate deficient transferrin (CDT) However, none of these blood tests for biological markers is as sensitive as screening questionnaires. |
