ALCOHOL AND CARDIOVASCULAR MORTALITY ARE THE POPULATION LEVEL OF INTERRELATION

Abstract

This article deal with comparative analysis of trends in cardiovascular and alcohol poisoning mortality rates in Russia in 1956-2005. The results of the time series analysis suggest a close relationship between the cardiovascular mortality and fatal alcohol poisoning rate at the population level. This study supports the hypothesis that an intoxication-oriented drinking pattern (binge drinking) is a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality.
