Résumé :
The latest alcohol-related harm statistics from the UK's Office of National Statistics (ONS) were released on Jan 26, 2012, and provide an opportunity to re-evaluate the projections of alcohol-related liver deaths that we previously reported in this journal with 2008 data. Using the standard ONS definition, alcohol-related liver deaths in England and Wales fell from 6470 in 2008 to 6230 in 2009, but then increased again to 6317 in 2010. [Extract]
