Introduction and Aims
While injuries and alcohol contribute to a large proportion of the disease burden in Thailand, no well‐designed underlying study has yet been published. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between acute alcohol consumption and injury risk in Thailand.
Design and Methods
Using the case‐crossover design, this study examined 520 injured patients aged 18 years and older...
Aims
To study the impact of alcohol control policy measures (i.e. increases in taxation, restrictions on availability, including minimum purchasing age regulations, legislation on drink driving and advertisement bans) on alcohol‐related traffic harm in Lithuania between January 2004 and February 2019.
Design
Analyses of trend data on the proportion of alcohol‐related collisions and crashes, injury...
Aim
To compare the injury alcohol‐attributable fractions (AAFs) estimated using emergency department (ED) data to AAFs estimated by combining population alcohol consumption data with corresponding relative risks (RRs).
Design
Comparative risk assessment.
Setting and participants
ED studies in 27 countries (n = 24 971).
Measurements
AAFs were estimated by means of an acute method using data...
Background and aims
Alcohol use is a major contributor to injuries, mortality and the burden of disease. This review updates knowledge on risk relations between dimensions of alcohol use and health outcomes to be used in global and national Comparative Risk Assessments (CRAs).
Methods
Systematic review of reviews and meta‐analyses on alcohol consumption and health outcomes attributable to alcohol...
Aims As part of a larger study to estimate the global burden of disease and injury attributable to alcohol: to evaluate the evidence for a causal impact of average volume of alcohol consumption and pattern of drinking on diseases and injuries; to quantify relationships identified as causal based on published meta‐analyses; to separate the impact on mortality versus morbidity where possible; and to...
