InterMAHP, a new tool for alcohol epidemiologists from CISUR
How much does alcohol cost? Think beyond the price of a bottle of wine; how many deaths per year are due to alcohol-related colon cancer? How about hospitalizations due to impaired driving accidents? CISUR's new International Model of Alcohol Harms and Policies (InterMAHP) tool can help you find out.
InterMAHP is a comprehensive set of guidelines, methods and manuals, as well as a SAS®-based tool developed to help standardize and automate the calculation and application of alcohol-attributable fractions (AAFs) globally. The tool can be used by international alcohol research teams to assist in alcohol harms estimation, in particular in relation to alcohol-attributable mortality and morbidity calculation.
InterMAHP was developed by CISUR PhD candidate Adam Sherk and colleagues.
