Only a minor fraction of individuals with alcohol abuse develop cirrhosis, and the pathophysiological mechanisms are only partly understood. About 50% of patients are diagnosed, when complications such as ascites, renal failure, or oesophageal varices occur.

Underreporting of Alcohol-Related Mortality from Cirrhosis is Declining in Sweden and Denmark

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1988
Death rates for alcoholic cirrhosis ran parallel to alcohol consumption in Sweden and Denmark from 1961 to 1986, according to official statistics. Reported death rates for alcoholic cirrhosis and for non-alcoholic cirrhosis increased linearly from 1965 to 1976 in Sweden and from 1967 to 1973 in Denmark. This suggests that constant proportions of deaths
