TwitterIt is estimated that alcohol contributed to around 2.6 million deaths worldwide in 2019. The major causes of alcohol-related death include alcohol poisoning, liver damage, heart failure, cancer, and car accidents. Alcohol abuse worldwide Despite the widespread use of alcohol around the world, a global survey from 2024 of people from 31 different countries found that around 16 percent of respondents stated alcohol abuse was the biggest health problem facing people in their country. The countries with the highest per capita consumption of alcohol include Romania, Georgia, and Latvia. Alcohol consumption in the United States It is estimated that over half of adults in the United States aged 21 to 49 currently use alcohol. Binge drinking (four or more drinks for women and five or more drinks for men on a single occasion) is most common among those aged 21 to 29 years, but still around 25 percent of those aged 40 to 44 report binge drinking. The states with the highest share of the population who binge drink are North Dakota, Iowa, and South Dakota. The death rate due to alcohol in the United States was around 13.5 per 100,000 population in 2022, an increase from a rate of 10.4 per 100,000 recorded in 2019.

BackgroundCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading global disease burden, with alcohol consumption closely linked to their occurrence. This study analyzes data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 (GBD 2021) to assess the distribution and trends of high alcohol use-related CVD from 1990 to 2021 across global, regional, and national levels.Materials and methodsWe used the data from the GBD 2021 to conduct stratification by region, country, gender, age, SDI, and disease type in terms of the number of deaths, age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), age-standardized rate of DALYs (ASDR), years lived with disability (YLDs), age-standardized rate of YLDs, years of life lost (YLLs), and age-standardized rate of YLLs to comprehensively assess the burden of high alcohol use-related CVD from 1990 to 2021. All statistical analyses in this study were performed using R statistical software (version 4.1.2).ResultsBetween 1990 and 2021, global deaths, DALYs, YLDs, and YLLs attributable to high alcohol use-related CVD showed notable variation. By 2021, global deaths had doubled compared to 1990, while ASMR, ASDR, age-standardized YLD rate, and YLL rate all declined. Eastern Europe had the highest rates in 2021. Males consistently had higher ASMR, ASDR, YLD, and YLL rates compared to females, with the highest number of deaths occurring in the 70–74 age group, and the 65–69 age group showing the highest DALYs, YLDs, and YLLs. These rates increased with age. Stroke was the most common high alcohol use-related CVD, while ischemic heart disease (IHD) was the least common.ConclusionBetween 1990 and 2021, the overall burden of high alcohol use-related CVD declined globally, though some regions experienced an increase. This highlights the need for continued public health efforts, particularly targeting high-risk regions and populations, to mitigate the impact of alcohol on cardiovascular health.

TwitterA straightforward way to assess the health status of a population is to focus on mortality – or concepts like child mortality or life expectancy, which are based on mortality estimates. A focus on mortality, however, does not take into account that the burden of diseases is not only that they kill people, but that they cause suffering to people who live with them. Assessing health outcomes by both mortality and morbidity (the prevalent diseases) provides a more encompassing view on health outcomes. This is the topic of this entry. The sum of mortality and morbidity is referred to as the ‘burden of disease’ and can be measured by a metric called ‘Disability Adjusted Life Years‘ (DALYs). DALYs are measuring lost health and are a standardized metric that allow for direct comparisons of disease burdens of different diseases across countries, between different populations, and over time. Conceptually, one DALY is the equivalent of losing one year in good health because of either premature death or disease or disability. One DALY represents one lost year of healthy life. The first ‘Global Burden of Disease’ (GBD) was GBD 1990 and the DALY metric was prominently featured in the World Bank’s 1993 World Development Report. Today it is published by both the researchers at the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) and the ‘Disease Burden Unit’ at the World Health Organization (WHO), which was created in 1998. The IHME continues the work that was started in the early 1990s and publishes the Global Burden of Disease study.

Background Alcohol use is a leading risk factor for death and disability, but its overall association with health remains complex given the possible protective effects of moderate alcohol consumption on some conditions. With our comprehensive approach to health accounting within the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016, we generated improved estimates of alcohol use and alcohol-attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) for 195 locations from 1990 to 2016, for both sexes and for 5-year age groups between the ages of 15 years and 95 years and older.
Methods Using 694 data sources of individual and population-level alcohol consumption, along with 592 prospective and retrospective studies on the risk of alcohol use, we produced estimates of the prevalence of current drinking, abstention, the distribution of alcohol consumption among current drinkers in standard drinks daily (defined as 10 g of pure ethyl alcohol), and alcohol-attributable deaths and DALYs. We made several methodological improvements compared with previous estimates: first, we adjusted alcohol sales estimates to take into account tourist and unrecorded consumption; second, we did a new meta-analysis of relative risks for 23 health outcomes associated with alcohol use; and third, we developed a new method to quantify the level of alcohol consumption that minimises the overall risk to individual health

Alcoholic Hepatitis Treatment Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
The increasing consumption of alcohol worldwide is notably driving the alcoholic hepatitis treatment market growth, although factors such as lack of therapies to treat severe alcoholic hepatitis may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the alcoholic hepatitis treatment industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Alcoholic Hepatitis Treatment Market Driver
Increasing consumption of alcohol worldwide is a major driver fueling the alcoholic hepatitis treatment market growth. Heavy consumption of alcohol leads to alcoholic hepatitis, which results in hepatic encephalopathy. There has been an increase in the consumption of alcohol globally, which resulted in increased cases of alcoholic hepatitis and mortality rates. In 2017, according to Our World in Data, worldwide alcohol disorders had the highest death toll of 184,934 due to substance use disorders. Brazil, Sub-Saharan Africa, China, India, Russia, and the US, among others, were the countries that observed a high death rate due to alcohol use disorders. Also, every year, 21,815 deaths are caused by alcohol liver diseases in the US. Furthermore, in 2016, a total of 2,744,248 resident deaths were registered in the US. Similarly, according to Eurostat, in wine-producing countries such as Spain, Italy, and Portugal, people tend to drink daily. According to Eurostat, in 2016, 18.6 liters of pure alcohol were consumed per person in Lithuania, followed by Romania (13.7 liters), Bulgaria (13.6 liters), and Belgium (13.2 liters). The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in lockdowns. With the orders of stay at home or work-from-home, the consumption of alcohol spiked in some cities of the US and India. Growing consumption of alcohol is increasing the risk of alcoholic hepatitis. This will drive the global alcoholic hepatitis treatment market during the forecast period.
Key Alcoholic Hepatitis Treatment Market Trend
The development of combination therapies to treat severe alcoholic hepatitis is a major trend influencing the alcoholic hepatitis treatment market growth. The market has witnessed the development of combination therapies to treat severe alcoholic hepatitis. Currently, there is no effective treatment for severe alcoholic hepatitis. Therefore, researchers are focusing on developing combination therapies, as they are more effective. For instance, the researchers at the University of Massachusetts Medical School are studying a combination therapy with Kineret, Trental, and zinc sulfate. During the multicenter study, the combination showed short- and long-term survival benefits in patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis with no unexpected treatment-related severe adverse events. Similarly, Gilead Sciences is conducting a Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of selonsertib (GS-4997) in combination with prednisolone in patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis. Furthermore, researchers are evaluating an antibiotic combined with a corticosteroid by targeting the group of patients at high risk of death due to alcoholic hepatitis. Also, researchers are conducting a study on N-acetylcysteine and prednisolone combination therapy for people with severe alcoholic hepatitis in order to improve short-term mortality. Such developments of combination therapies are expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Key Alcoholic Hepatitis Treatment Market Challenge

BackgroundStroke represents a critical public health challenge with far-reaching global implications for human health. In this study, we seek to characterize the global trends in the burden of stroke attributable to high alcohol use from 1990 to 2021 and investigate its associations with socioeconomic status.MethodsData on the burden of stroke attributable to high alcohol use were derived from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study. The main evaluation indicators include mortality, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR), and age-standardized DALY rates (ASDR). Trends in disease burden across genders, age groups, and regions were analyzed. Decomposition, frontier, and forecasting analyses were also conducted for the disease.ResultsIn 2021, stroke attributable to high alcohol consumption remain a substantial global health burden, accounting for 253,625 deaths (95% UI: 53,445–506,300) and 6,003,243 DALYs (95% UI: 1,323,435–11,423,164) worldwide, respectively. ASMR and ASDR for stroke attributable to high alcohol consumption show a global decline, with an EAPC of −1.81 (95% CI: −1.88 to −1.75) for ASMR and −1.63 (95% CI: −1.70 to −1.56) for ASDR. Findings reveal that in global, high, high-middle and middle SDI regions, epidemiological changes are the primary drivers of decline in mortality and DALYs for disease burden. By 2030, the ASMR for high alcohol use-attributable stroke is projected to decline from 4.3 per 100,000 in 2021 to 4.15 per 100,000, while the ASDR is forecast to decrease from 98 per 100,000 in 2021 to 95 per 100,000.ConclusionIn summary, ASMR and ASDR for stroke attributable to high alcohol consumption decline globally, and in most regions from 1990 to 2021. Relevant countries and institutions should continue to attach great importance to the impact of this disease and formulate targeted policies.

Effect of suicide rates on life expectancy dataset
Abstract In 2015, approximately 55 million people died worldwide, of which 8 million committed suicide. In the USA, one of the main causes of death is the aforementioned suicide, therefore, this experiment is dealing with the question of how much suicide rates affects the statistics of average life expectancy. The experiment takes two datasets, one with the number of suicides and life expectancy in the second one and combine data into one dataset. Subsequently, I try to find any patterns and correlations among the variables and perform statistical test using simple regression to confirm my assumptions.
Data
The experiment uses two datasets - WHO Suicide Statistics[1] and WHO Life Expectancy[2], which were firstly appropriately preprocessed. The final merged dataset to the experiment has 13 variables, where country and year are used as index: Country, Year, Suicides number, Life expectancy, Adult Mortality, which is probability of dying between 15 and 60 years per 1000 population, Infant deaths, which is number of Infant Deaths per 1000 population, Alcohol, which is alcohol, recorded per capita (15+) consumption, Under-five deaths, which is number of under-five deaths per 1000 population, HIV/AIDS, which is deaths per 1 000 live births HIV/AIDS, GDP, which is Gross Domestic Product per capita, Population, Income composition of resources, which is Human Development Index in terms of income composition of resources, and Schooling, which is number of years of schooling.

A straightforward way to assess the health status of a population is to focus on mortality – or concepts like child mortality or life expectancy, which are based on mortality estimates. A focus on mortality, however, does not take into account that the burden of diseases is not only that they kill people, but that they cause suffering to people who live with them. Assessing health outcomes by both mortality and morbidity (the prevalent diseases) provides a more encompassing view on health outcomes. This is the topic of this entry. The sum of mortality and morbidity is referred to as the ‘burden of disease’ and can be measured by a metric called ‘Disability Adjusted Life Years‘ (DALYs).
DALYs are measuring lost health and are a standardized metric that allow for direct comparisons of disease burdens of different diseases across countries, between different populations, and over time. Conceptually, one DALY is the equivalent of losing one year in good health because of either premature death or disease or disability. One DALY represents one lost year of healthy life. The first ‘Global Burden of Disease’ (GBD) was GBD 1990 and the DALY metric was prominently featured in the World Bank’s 1993 World Development Report. Today it is published by both the researchers at the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) and the ‘Disease Burden Unit’ at the World Health Organization (WHO), which was created in 1998. The IHME continues the work that was started in the early 1990s and publishes the Global Burden of Disease study.

ABSTRACT Introduction Alcohol is a risk factor for several health conditions and accounts for more than three million deaths per year worldwide. The substance contributes to the development of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular and cancer, as well as for acute conditions related to direct effects on the central nervous system. Despite this, its use is common practice among university students, including medical students. Objectives The objectives were (i) to develop a literature review to identify studies into the prevalence of alcohol use among students at Brazilian medical schools; and (ii) to analyze the estimates of prevalence according to medical course and school characteristics. Method Literature review developed to search publications in the (i) Latin American and Caribbean Center in Health Sciences Information (Lilacs) database, using the word combination [(estudantes de medicina AND álcool)] and in the US National Library of Medicine of National Institute of Health (Medline/Pubmed) database, using the word combination [(medical students AND alcohol AND Brazil)]. Alcohol use patterns in the past seven days, past thirty days, and past year were analyzed by plotting and visualization of point estimates and confidence intervals, as well as correlations. Results Fourteen studies were included in this review. Eight of them were developed in the southeast region. Most institutions were under public administration (n = 8), and were in state capitals (n = 8). The prevalence of alcohol use in the past seven days ranged from 23.0% to 46.5%, in the past thirty days ranged from 20.2% to 87.6%, and in the past year ranged from 79.3% to 92.9%. The correlations between prevalence and workload, and between prevalence and age of school showed a weak intensity on the three use patterns analyzed. The correlation directions followed diversified patterns. In the past seven days, the correlation directions were negative both with workload and age of the school. In the past thirty days, the correlation direction was negative with the workload, and positive with the age of the school. In the past year, the correlation direction was positive with workload, and negative with the age of the school. Conclusions Alcohol use is a recurring theme in Brazilian scientific literature and the estimates of prevalence of its use in the past seven days, in the past thirty days and in the past year are high among medical students. The influence of medical school and the medical course characteristics on the use of psychoactive substances requires more attention from the scientific community, and the involvement of the higher education institutions in controlling the alcohol problem in Brazil is fundamental.

TwitterIt is estimated that alcohol contributed to around 2.6 million deaths worldwide in 2019. The major causes of alcohol-related death include alcohol poisoning, liver damage, heart failure, cancer, and car accidents. Alcohol abuse worldwide Despite the widespread use of alcohol around the world, a global survey from 2024 of people from 31 different countries found that around 16 percent of respondents stated alcohol abuse was the biggest health problem facing people in their country. The countries with the highest per capita consumption of alcohol include Romania, Georgia, and Latvia. Alcohol consumption in the United States It is estimated that over half of adults in the United States aged 21 to 49 currently use alcohol. Binge drinking (four or more drinks for women and five or more drinks for men on a single occasion) is most common among those aged 21 to 29 years, but still around 25 percent of those aged 40 to 44 report binge drinking. The states with the highest share of the population who binge drink are North Dakota, Iowa, and South Dakota. The death rate due to alcohol in the United States was around 13.5 per 100,000 population in 2022, an increase from a rate of 10.4 per 100,000 recorded in 2019.
