Text

For analyses of alcohol consumption, values for the average intake of ethanol in pure ethanol gram per weight (kg) per week during the last 12 months were calculated from the available Health 2000 interview data. The analyses were made in the whole study population (n = 1006) and also separately among cases and controls.
