Anmärkning: Innehållsbeskrivning, sammanfattning During the last 25 years, alcohol consumption has become a widely debated issue, especially due to research results, in which the benefical effects of alcohol on health and mortality have been maintained. Research has primarily focused on two issues: the association between low consumption of alcohol and decreased mortality, mediated through decreased risks for cardiovascular diseases, and the association between wine consumption and health. This thesis deals with both of this issues, as well as the identification of high and low alcohol consumers of alcohol, by means of a questionnaire and a health examination. The differential effects of high and low alcohol consumption, as well as the differential effects of diverse alcohol beverages are investigated, using data from National Cause of Death Register, National In-Patient Register and National Cancer Register. Multivariate analysis has been conducted to investigate the effects of alcohol and the influence of confunders. The plausibility of tracing high and low consumers of alcohol, through the use of two questions about alcohol consumption included in a questionnaire has also been investigated. The effects of a single health examination, seen in relation to morbidity and mortality, traced in the proceeding 22-year period have also been studied. (From the abstract)
