Plasma levels of 3 methoxy, 4-hydroxy phenylethyl glycol (MHPG) of detoxified alcoholics were found to be positively correlated with age as previously found with normal subjects. The slope of the regression line of plasma MHPG and age of the alcoholics in remission was significantly steeper than that of normal controls, indicating a faster age-related increase of MHPG in alcoholics.
结果发现，戒酒者的血浆3-甲氧基-4-羟基苯乙二醇（MHPG）水平与年龄呈正相关，这与之前在正常受试者中发现的情况相同。戒酒者血浆MHPG与年龄的回归线斜率显著陡于正常对照组，表明戒酒者中MHPG随年龄增长的速度更快。
