Resumen:
Alcohol 01 bets the brain and most organs and systems, and its use is related to a large munber of health problems. These include mental neurological digestivn cardiovascular, endocrine, metabolic perinatal, cancerous and in diseases, as well as intentional and non-intentional injuries. Physiopathological mechanisms still remain unraveled, though direct :toxicity cif ethanol and its metabolites, nutritional deficit: and intestinal microbial endotoxin absorption have been suggested, all of which would be further modulated by use patterns and genetic and environmental factors. :Individually it is difficult to precisely predict who will or will not suffer health consequences. At population level several disorders show we-response relationship, as is the case xi ith various cancer types, hepatopathies, in)uries, and probably risky behaviors such as unsafe sex. Other health prsiblems such as general :mortality in people aboaro 45 years of age, ischemic disease or diabetes mellitus show a shaped relationship with alcohol use. The overall effect of alcohol on the global burden of disease is highly detrimental, despite the possible beneficial effect on cardiovascular disease. Large differences are found by country, age, gender, socioeconomic and other inc.:tors. Disease burden is mostly related with alcohol's capacity to produce dependence and with acute intoxication. Often alcohol also produces negative consequences for irtirer ple (violence, unattended family or work dirties etc) which are generally not taken into account when evaluating burden of disease. The aim of this study was to describe the main alcohol -related social and health harms, as well as their generating mechanisms, using secondary data sources
