Abstract

Purpose. To study association between demographics and alcohol abuse. Material and methods. Statistical analysis of the Grodno region data in 2017-2021 was performed: on the population, the amount of alcohol consumed, marriages and divorces; patients under dispensary narcological supervision, including those who have died; the number of fires and those killed in them, including those in a state of intoxication. Results. It has been established that against the background of a progressive increase in alcohol consumption there are: its almost linear relationship with a decrease in the population; correlation with the number of marriages and divorces, the mortality of dispensary narcological patients and the high level of deaths in fires of persons in a state of alcoholic intoxication. Conclusions. The social origin of alcohol abuse, in our opinion, gives the highest priority in prevention to the strategy of minimizing the negative consequences of alcohol abuse and the formation of public opinion through the inclusion of a behavioral approach in the implementation of social competencies in patients who abuse alcohol.
