Mortality in England and Wales attributable to current alcohol consumption.
To estimate the number of deaths attributable to current alcohol consumption levels in England and Wales by age and sex. ⋯ At a population level, current alcohol consumption in England and Wales may marginally reduce mortality. However, the benefit is disproportionately found among the elderly. Estimating alcohol attributable mortality by age and sex may be a useful indicator for developing alcohol strategies. More research into the possible effect modifications of pattern of consumption, beverage type, age and gender will enable these estimates to be improved.
