Alcohol, Alcoholism, and Cancer
Medical Clinics of North America, 1984Certain types of cancer are clearly associated with alcohol abuse, although the role of ethanol in carcinogenesis--as a carcinogen, co-carcinogen, promoter, or "innocent bystander"--is not known with certainty. The impact of alcohol abuse on the management of the patient with cancer is also discussed.

Alcoholism as Blaming the Alcoholic
International Journal of the Addictions, 1976Theories of alcoholism tend to blame the alcoholic by implying that most American drinkers have an ability, which the alcoholic lacks, to drink without problems. The presence or absence of this ability or capacity presumably accounts for the incidence of alcohol problems in society.

Alcohol exerts a series of different effects, especially when ingested chronically, and alcoholism is a rather complex, heterogeneous disease. Genetic factors may be implicated on various levels such as metabolism, acute effects, tolerance, dependence, and medical complications. This presentation will be arranged in three parts: (1) The main results of

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1990
Ethyl alcohol is readily available and is, therefore, a frequent cause of poisoning. Alcohol is also an important substance of abuse. The author discusses the approaches to medicolegal alcohol determinations. The pharmacokinetics of alcohol are explained, and ramifications for substance abuse testing are examined.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1970
Bela Schick once observed that after 20 years scientists are no longer quoted in the medical literature. "Every 20 years sees a republication of the same ideas." If the generation gap in scientific communication is unfortunate, so, too, is the geographical gap—ie, the poor flow of information from country to country.

After heart disease and cancer, alcoholism is America's third largest health problem; it affects 10 million people, costs $ 60 billion, and is implicated in 200 000 deaths annually. Alcohol is involved in 50% of deaths by motor vehicle and fire, 67% of murders, and 33% of suicides.

Alcohol consumption affects overall mortality. Light to moderate alcohol consumption reduces the risk of coronary heart disease; epidemiological, physiological and genetic data show a causal relationship. Light to moderate drinking is also associated with a reduced risk of other vascular diseases and probably of type 2 diabetes.
