Abstract

Alcohol abuse is a major determinant of public health outcomes. Worldwide data from 2016 indicate that alcohol is the seventh leading risk factor in terms of disability-adjusted life years, an increase of more than 25% from 1990 to 2016. Understanding the epidemiology of alcoholic liver disease, including the regional variations in consumption and public policy, is an area of active research. In countries where the per capita consumption of alcohol decreases, there appears to be an associated decrease in disease burden. Given alcohol's health burden, an increased focus on alcohol control policies is needed.

摘要

酗酒是公共健康状况的主要决定因素。2016 年的全球数据显示，在经过伤残调整生命年（衡量人们因生病或受伤而损失的健康生命年数的指标）调整后，酒精是第七大风险因素，与 1990 年相比增加了 25%以上。了解包括消费和公共政策方面的区域差异在内的酒精性肝病的流行病学，是一个活跃的研究领域。在人均酒精消费量下降的国家，疾病负担似乎也随之下降。鉴于酒精对健康的负担，需要更加关注酒精控制政策。
