This paper is a review of the literature on problem-related drinking of alcohol among medical doctors, and it deals with the epidemiology and results.
A search of computer literature databases - PubMed and ETOH - was performed to locate articles reporting problem-related drinking among doctors, using population-based samples of doctors within the last two decades.
In the light of different definitions of problem-related drinking, there was found a breadth of prevalence of problem-related drinking - from heavy drinking and hazardous drinking (12%-16%) to misuse and dependence (6%-8%) - within the population-based samples of doctors. An increased risk was positively related to male doctors and doctors of the age of 40-45 years and older, and to some factors of work, lifestyle and health.
For the future, it seems necessary to sensitise the research for problem-related drinking of doctors in Germany, e.g. initiating a representative survey, analysing the drinking of alcohol in the context of health, life-style and work-related factors.
本文是一篇关于医生中与问题相关饮酒的文献综述，涉及流行病学及研究结果。
检索计算机文献数据库——PubMed和ETOH，以查找过去二十年中基于医生人群样本报道与问题相关饮酒情况的文章。
鉴于对与问题相关饮酒的不同定义，在基于医生人群的样本中，发现与问题相关饮酒的患病率范围较广——从重度饮酒和有害饮酒（12%-16%）到滥用和依赖（6%-8%）。风险增加与男性医生、40-45岁及以上的医生以及一些工作、生活方式和健康因素呈正相关。
未来，似乎有必要加强德国对医生与问题相关饮酒的研究，例如开展一项代表性调查，在健康、生活方式和工作相关因素的背景下分析饮酒情况。
