Abstract:

Alcohol use disorders are an important risk factor for liver cirrhosis. Objective: To describe and analyze comparatively Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALY), Years of Life Lost (YLL) and Years Lived with Disability (YLD) of alcohol use disorders and non-viral cirrhosis in Brazil in 2008. Methods: DALY was calculated as the sum of YLL and YLD. For YLL estimates, the mean number of deaths from 2007-2009 in the country was considered. After revision of epidemiological data, prevalence of each disease was modelled with the DisMod tool, which generated incidence data for YLD estimates. Results: Alcohol and non-viral cirrhosis were responsible for 3% and 1% of total DALYs, respectively. In both diseases, men contributed to a greater proportion of DALYs. Among the first ten causes of DALYs, alcohol use disorders occupied the second, third and sixth positions at the ages of 15-29, 30-44 and 45-59, respectively. Non-viral cirrhosis was the eighth cause of DALY in the 30-44 age group in men; the fifth, in the 45-59 group and the eighth, in the 60-69 group. Conclusion: Age distribution suggests that interventions towards alcohol use disorders would have effects on the burden of alcoholic cirrhosis in the country.
