The drinking habits of Asian and indigenous patients receiving in-patient care for alcoholism in West London were studied. Although both racial groups reported similar levels of current alcohol intake, the Asian developed problems and presented for in-patient detoxification with a shorter mean duration of drinking than the indigenous subjects. Values for mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) were higher in the Asians, suggesting the Asians were at greater risk of alcohol-related physical damage.
对在伦敦西部因酗酒接受住院治疗的亚洲患者和本地患者的饮酒习惯进行了研究。尽管两个种族群体报告的当前酒精摄入量水平相似，但亚洲人出现问题并因住院戒酒前来就诊时的平均饮酒持续时间比本地受试者短。亚洲人的平均红细胞体积（MCV）和γ-谷氨酰转肽酶（GGT）值较高，这表明亚洲人遭受酒精相关身体损害的风险更大。
