No data have so far been published concerning the extent of the problem of alcohol-related liver diseases in The Netherlands.
Figures on alcohol consumption and admission and mortality rates due to alcohol-related liver disorders in The Netherlands in 1994 were obtained from various sources and the data were considered in a historical perspective. Special attention was paid to regional differences.
The per capita alcohol consumption in 1994 in The Netherlands was 86 litres of beer, 16 litres of wine and 1.8 litres of pure alcohol as spirits. The total alcohol per capita consumption of individuals upwards of 15 years of age showed a decrease from 11.7 litres in 1975 to 9.7 litres in 1994. In the same period the estimated number consuming more than 10 cl pure alcohol (8 units) per day remained at about 180,000. The number of general hospital admissions as a result of alcohol-related liver disease as well as the number of deaths because of cirrhosis has hardly changed since 1985. In 1994, 657 men and 407 women were admitted due to alcohol-related liver disease, and 269 men and 125 women died from an alcohol-related liver disorder. The admission and mortality rates from alcohol-related liver disease differed markedly among the various provinces of The Netherlands.
迄今为止，尚无关于荷兰酒精性肝病问题严重程度的相关数据发表。
从各种来源获取了1994年荷兰的酒精消费量以及酒精性肝病的入院率和死亡率数据，并从历史角度对这些数据进行了考量。特别关注了地区差异。
1994年荷兰人均啤酒消费量为86升，葡萄酒消费量为16升，纯酒精（作为烈酒）消费量为1.8升。15岁及以上人群的人均酒精总消费量从1975年的11.7升降至1994年的9.7升。在同一时期，估计每天饮用超过10厘升纯酒精（8个单位）的人数保持在约18万左右。自1985年以来，因酒精性肝病导致的综合医院入院人数以及肝硬化死亡人数几乎没有变化。1994年，因酒精性肝病入院的男性有657人，女性有407人，因酒精性肝病死亡的男性有269人，女性有125人。荷兰各省份的酒精性肝病入院率和死亡率存在显著差异。
