Finally, YPLL prior to age 65 were computed from those suicides that had been tested for alcohol. For all suicides, male and female YPLL were 1,937,081 and 547,680, respectively. For acute alcohol-related suicides, the male and female YPLL were 738,720 and 148,764, respectively. Thus, according to these data, alcohol-related suicides accounted for 36% of YPLL, which is consistent with CDC alcohol-related disease impact estimates [7].
