abstract="This is a study of alcoholic mortality in which time, cause, and age at death were variables of critical interest. Five cohorts of 100 members each were followed 12, 11, 9, 6, and 4 years. A total of 133 cases were located as deceased. The overall case fatality rate (CFR) was .0371. Higher CFR's were observed in years 1 to 6. Cardiovascular disease, violence (homicide, suicide, accidental), cirrhosis, carcionomas, and acute intoxication were the leading causes of death. Violent deaths were more prevalent in younger admission age groups. The cardiovascular/other ratio increased in older admission age groups.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
