Time for carefully tailored set of alcohol policies to reduce health‐care burden and mitigate potential unintended consequences
The burden of alcohol on health care during Covid ‐19
Alcohol's impact on global health is substantial and of a similar order of magnitude to that from COVID‐19. Alcohol now also poses specific concerns, such as increased risk of severe lung infections, domestic violence, child abuse, depression and suicide. Its use is unlikely to aid physical distancing or other preventative behavioural measures. Globally, alcohol contributes to 20% of injury and 11.5% of non‐injury emergency room presentations. We…
Replication of a Controlled Community Prevention Trial
Road Accidents, Alcohol, and Drugs
This article describes the potential contribution of alcohol and illicit drugs to increased risk of road accidents in Italy. Blood and urine samples were taken from patients admitted to five Emergency Rooms (ER) in metropolitan Florence, Italy, due to road traffic accidents within 3 hours of the accident. Seven hundred and thirty-five patients were tested to determine if alcohol and illicit drugs (amphetamines, opiates, cocaine, methadone, and ca…
Alcohol
Alcohol: No Ordinary Commodity - Research and Public Policy Second Edition is a collaborative effort by an international group of addiction scientists to improve the linkages between addiction science and alcohol policy. It presents the accumulated scientific knowledge on alcohol research that has a direct relevance to the development of alcohol policy on local, national, and international levels. It provides an objective analytical basis on whic…

Alcohol: No Ordinary Commodity
From a public health perspective, alcohol is no ordinary consumer product. On a global level, it is a major contributor to disease, disability, and premature mortality. It also has an adverse impact on many aspects of social life. Alcohol: No Ordinary Commodity – Research and Public Policy describes recent advances in alcohol research that have direct relevance for the development of effective alcohol policies at the local, national and internati…
Effect of policies directed at youth access to smoking
A well designed youth access policy has the ability to affect youth smoking rates in the short term, and will lead to savings in lives in future years. The ability of retail oriented policies to reduce youth smoking, however, is limited. Other tobacco control policies, including those directed at non-retail sources of cigarettes, are also needed
Alcohol and the Community
An individual's decision to use alcohol and the frequency, quantity and situation of such use are the result of a combination of biological and social factors. Drinking is not only a personal choice, but also a matter of custom and social behaviour, and is influenced by access and economic factors including levels of disposable income and cost of alcoholic beverages. Until prevention efforts cease to focus narrowly on the individual and begin to …
Alcohol and the community
The end of U.S. prohibition
Natural experiments involving changes in alcoholic beverage availability are valuable opportunities to examine the corresponding associated changes in alcohol consumption and alcohol-related problems. Usually one is able to examine the relationship between changes in availability and consumption (all other things being equal), changes in consumption and problems and/or changes in availability and problems (see Giesbrecht et al., 1982; Smart, 1979…
An Analysis of Short-Term Alcoholism Treatment Cost Functions
A number of alcohol treatment studies have documented variations in the average cost of treating alcoholics. However, these studies have provided little explanation for these variations. In this study, three major issues in the measurement of alcoholism treatment costs are investigated: 1) choice of treatment location, i.e., inpatient versus outpatient; 2) interaction of treatment locations in the estimation of costs; 3) impact of type of alcohol…
A Discrete Choice Model of Alcoholism Treatment Location
In this study, a discrete choice model of alcoholism treatment location, with special emphasis on the roles of comorbidities is considered. Three specific questions are addressed: 1) what demographic and health factors have significant impacts on treatment location for both short- and long-term alcoholism and nonalcoholism treatments?; 2) how does the impact of alcohol dependence differ from the impact of alcohol abuse, on probabilities of short-…
Alcoholism Treatment and Potential Health Care Cost Saving
In 1979, MEDICAL CARE published a supplement that summarized and evaluated existing research on changes in health care patterns associated with mental health, alcoholism, and drug abuse treatment. This paper, limited to alcoholism treatment, reviews research that has been completed since the 1979 supplement. Considerations of appropriate research methods are discussed, recent studies that have employed a variety of research approaches are reviewe…
