Introduction and Objectives

Liver damage from alcohol consumption is different between genders, and the susceptibility shown by women is greater than that of men; there are several factors for this difference to exist. We evaluated the complications of cirrhosis due to alcohol in a group of women and compared it with a group of men. This study aimed to compare the effect of alcohol consumption and complications between both genders.

Materials and methods

An observational, descriptive, and analytical study compares the pattern of alcohol consumption, the number of grams of alcohol between men and women, and its complications.

Results

Two hundred and twenty-two patients were included; 122 women (55.0%) with 51.7±11.5 years of age, Child-Pugh A=24 (10.8%), B=69 (30.6%) and C=130 (58.6%). The grammage/day of alcohol was Women 175.6.9±131.4 and Men 301.5±106.7. The type of consumption was regular risk M=6.6%; excessive M=45.9% and H=58.0%; intoxication M=11.5% and H=8.0%; binge M=36.1% and H=34.0%.

Next, the comparison of medians with the Mann-Whitney U test for MIH by type of consumption with significant differences is described. Table 1.

Conclusions

It was found that women develop more liver damage and more complications with lower consumption of grams of alcohol.

Funding

The resources used in this study were from the hospital without any additional financing
