  • Description: "Alcohol epidemiology gives specific information on the distribution of alcohol use, abuse, dependence, and other consequences in the population as well as related risk factors...Long-term epidemiologic data can help treatment providers to appreciate the natural history of alcohol use disorders (AUDs) and, thus, tailor and improve treatment. In 2001-2002, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) conducted the first wave of the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions (NESARC), the largest and most ambitious survey of this type conducted to date. The second wave of the survey took place from 2004 to 2005. The result is a detailed and comprehensive dataset related to alcohol and a range of comorbid disorders. This Alcohol Alert showcases NESARC, including a brief history of the methods used to conduct this groundbreaking survey, selected findings, and discussion of how this information can be put into everyday practice."
