135名女性和736名男性住院酗酒者的身体疾病概况，年龄，社会阶层和转诊模式相似，进行了比较，以进一步澄清广泛的临床印象，女性酗酒者更容易生病。尽管这些妇女饮用危险饮料的年份较少，但在入院时，大多数疾病的患病率在男性和女性中相似。然而，妇女贫血症、男子脂肪肝和慢性阻塞性肺病的发病率过高。此外，在几乎所有疾病事件首次记录发生之前，女性危险饮酒的平均持续时间较短，脂肪肝、高血压、肥胖、贫血、营养不良、胃肠道出血和需要手术的溃疡的性别差异具有统计学意义。这些研究结果表明，与危险饮酒有关的身体疾病的发展可能会加速妇女。
The physical disease profiles of 135 female and 736 male inpatient alcoholics, similar in age, social class and referral pattern, were compared to further clarify the widespread clinical impression that female alcoholics are more illness-prone. Although the women had been drinking hazardously for fewer years, at admission the prevalence of most diseases was similar in men and women. There was, however, an excess of anemia in women and of fatty liver and chronic obstructive lung disease in men. Furthermore, the average duration of hazardous drinking before the first recorded occurrence of almost all illness events was shorter in women, the sex differences being statistically significant of fatty liver, hypertension, obesity, anemia, malnutrition, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and an ulcer requiring surgery. These findings suggest that the development of physical morbidity in relation to hazardous drinking may be accelerated in women.
