First set of criteria to detect alcoholism issued

The National Council of Alcoholism says only one in 200 physicians can accurately diagnose alcoholism and has published initial criteria in the August issues of the American Journal of Psychiatry and the Annals of Internal Medicine. A 14 member committee and 65 consultants spent a year on it. Major symptoms include withdrawal, high drinking despite intoxication, daily consumption of a fifth of liquor or its equivalent, and drinking despite medical or social reasons to stop. Minor criteria cover laboratory tests and behaviors such as surreptitious drinking, frequent car accidents, drinking to relieve anger, insomnia, and attempts to quit. Risk factors include family history of drinking or alcoholism, broken homes, last-born status, and many generations of mood disorders among female relatives.
