酒精仍然是全球发病率和死亡率的一个主要因素。尽管科学取得了进步，但与酒精使用有关的问题继续对医学和公共卫生构成重大挑战。互联网提供了一种提供卫生保健干预的新模式。基于Web的干预措施（wbi）在最终用户家门口提供医疗保健服务。在过去几年中，开发wbi是为了解决与酒精使用有关的问题。wbi为问题酒精使用者提供了一种可能相关和可行的服务模式。因此，评估这些干预措施的有效性是很重要的。在对照试验中系统地评估了一些现有的酒精使用wbi。本综述评估了wbi在减少酒精使用方面有效性的现有证据。使用MedLine、PubMed、PsycINFO和EMBASE进行文献检索，检索截至2013年4月发表的相关英文文章。只纳入了通过wbi减少酒精使用的出版物。
Alcohol continues to be a major contributor to morbidity and mortality globally. Despite the scientific advances, alcohol use related problems continue to pose a major challenge to medicine and public health. Internet offers a new mode to provide health care interventions. Web based interventions (WBIs) provide the health care services at the door steps of the end users. WBIs have been developed for alcohol use related problems over the past few years. WBIs offer a potentially relevant and viable mode of service delivery to problem alcohol users. Hence, it is important to assess these interventions for their effectiveness. Some of the existing WBIs for alcohol use assessed systematically in controlled trials. The current review evaluates the available evidence for the effectiveness of WBIs for reducing alcohol use. The literature search was performed using MedLine, PubMed, PsycINFO and EMBASE for relevant English language articles published up to and including April 2013. Only publications focused on reducing alcohol use through WBIs were included.
