“…In 2017, the leading three alcohol-attributable health conditions were neuropsychiatric conditions (e.g., alcohol dependence/ abuse, alcoholic polyneuropathy), unintentional injuries (e.g., road traffic crashes, falls, poisoning) and digestive diseases (e.g., alcoholic gastritis, alcoholic liver cirrhosis), with males being hospitalised more than females for all three causes [11]. In an Australian multi-centre study, Miller et al [12] analysed the 10 most common principal diagnosis codes (International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition, Australian Modification, ICD-10-AM) from patients who had self-reported alcohol consumption in the previous 12 h. The leading three principal diagnoses blocks were mental and behavioural disorders due to psychoactive substance use, injuries to the head, and symptoms and signs involving the circulatory and respiratory systems. The sample from this study was skewed to be predominantly male across all age groups but more pronounced in the 35-44 and 55-64-year-old age groups.…”
