Mortalidad relacionada con el consumo de alcohol en España y en las comunidades autónomas en el año 2004
2008
Introduccion El consumo de alcohol se asocia a una gran morbimortalidad. El objetivo del estudio es analizar la mortalidad atribuible al consumo de alcohol en Espana y en las diferentes comunidades autonomas en 2004. Metodos Se utilizaron los datos de defunciones segun causa de muerte agrupados por edad, sexo y 60 categorias diagnosticas. Se calculo el numero de muertes atribuibles al consumo de alcohol por sexo y grupo de edad en 2004, para Espana y las distintas comunidades autonomas, a partir de las fracciones atribuibles propuestas por los Centers for Disease Control and Prevention para el calculo de la mortalidad en Estados Unidos en 2001. Se han calculado las tasas crudas y ajustadas …
Relationship between dysfunctional eating patterns and binge drinking in young people and associated risk factors
2022
La joventut (compresa entre els 18 i 30 anys) es considera un període de vulnerabilitat, en què és freqüent observar trastorns alimentaris, consum de drogues i una major tendència a buscar noves sensacions i comportaments de risc, entre moltes altres conductes. En concret, hi ha dos comportaments molt prevalents en els joves i s'associen amb conseqüències de salut molt negatives: el consum de menjar ultraprocessat i el consum d'alcohol. Tot i això, el problema no rau només en el tipus de consum (és a dir, beure alcohol o menjar menjar ràpid), sinó també en com es consumeix l'alcohol o el menjar. L'afartament es caracteritza per la ingesta de grans quantitats de menjar (afartament de menjar)…

Alcohol Consumption and Long-Term Labor Market Outcomes
2017
This paper examines whether alcohol consumption is related to long-term labor market outcomes. We use twin data for Finnish men and women matched to register-based individual information on employment and earnings. The twin data allow us to account for the shared environmental and genetic factors. The quantity of alcohol consumption was measured by weekly average consumption using self-reported data from three surveys (1975, 1981 and 1990). The average of an individual's employment months and earnings were measured in adulthood over the period 1990–2009. The models that account for the shared environmental and genetic factors reveal that former drinkers and heavy drinkers both have almost 2…
Do Loneliness and Social Isolation Predict Mortality Because of Hazardous Drinking?
2021
Introduction: Subjective feelings of loneliness and objective social isolation have been consistently connected with ill-health and mortality, though little work has empirically examined the mechanisms explaining the adverse effects. This study examines whether alcohol consumption explains the connection of loneliness and social isolation on mortality in different age and gender groups. Methods: The sample comprised a representative 1994 Finnish sample (n = 8,650) matched with 22-year follow-up mortality data. A multigroup path analysis with discrete survival time analyses was conducted. Results: There were unique differences in the associations between loneliness, social isolation, alcoho…
Persistent traffic offenders. Alcohol consumption and personality as predictors of driving disqualification
2019
espanolLa seguridad vial es un importante problema social. Muchos accidentes se deben al incumplimiento de las normas de trafico. Las infracciones graves o reiteradas se sancionan por la via administrativa o judicial y en ambos casos las sanciones pueden suponer la perdida del permiso de conducir. Este articulo explora la relevancia del alcohol y la personalidad como factores predictivos. El objetivo del estudio es determinar si el comportamiento delictivo de los infractores persistentes esta relacionado con sus caracteristicas de personalidad y patrones de consumo de alcohol. Se utilizo una muestra de 358 conductores: 232 infractores persistentes, a los que les habia sido retirado el carne…
Binge Drinking among adolescents is related to the development of Alcohol Use Disorders: results from a Cross-Sectional Study
2018
AbstractBinge drinking (BD) is a common pattern of alcohol consumption among adolescents. At present few data are available on the possible relationship between BD and alcohol use disorders (AUD) in adolescents. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of BD and relationship between BD behavior and AUD among adolescents. A total of 2704 students attending 10 purposively selected high schools from three Italian provinces were surveyed. Questionnaires regarding socio-demographic data, pattern and amount of alcohol intake, smoking habits, use of illicit drugs, and physical activity were administered. AUD and affective disorders were also evaluated. Alcohol intake was reported by 2126…
Periodontal condition and recurrence of periodontitis associated with alcohol consumption in periodontal maintenance therapy
2020
Background This study followed individuals in periodontal maintenance therapy (PMT) over 6 years and longitudinally evaluated the effects of the frequency of alcohol consumption on the recurrence of periodontitis (RP). Material and methods From a 6-year follow-up cohort study with 268 individuals under PMT, 142 patients who attended at least one PMT visit within 12 months were determined to be eligible. Based on their alcohol consumption, participants were categorized into 3 groups: none or occasional alcohol use (NA; n=88), moderate alcohol use (MA; n=26) and intense alcohol use (IA; n=24). Complete periodontal examination and alcohol consumption were evaluated at 2 times, T1 (after active…

Assessing alcohol consumption through wastewater-based epidemiology: Spain as a case study
2020
Background In this study, an alternative and complementary method to those approaches currently used to estimate alcohol consumption by the population is described. This method, known as wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE), allows back-calculating the alcohol consumption rate in a given population from the concentrations of a selected biomarker measured in wastewater. Methods Composite (24-h) wastewater samples were collected at the inlet of 17 wastewater treatment plants located in 13 Spanish cities for seven consecutive days in 2018. The sampled area covered 12.8% of the Spanish population. Wastewater samples were analyzed to determine the concentration of ethyl sulfate, the biomarker use…
