Regional variations in British alcohol morbidity rates: a myth uncovered? II: population surveys

A Crawford et al. Br Med J (Clin Res Ed). .

Abstract

Regional variations in officially recorded rates of alcohol related morbidity in Britain were investigated by surveying community drinking habits of a randomly selected sample of adults in the Highlands, Tayside, and part of the South East Thames region. Contrary to expectations, patterns of alcohol consumption did not differ in a manner consistent with the much higher rates of alcohol related problems recorded in the north.
