Background: Diabetes mellitus is a major public health issue. Alcohol abuse is a factor that has been suggested to be relevant with respect to the risk of diabetes. Purpose: To estimate the aggregate level beverage-specific effect of alcohol on diabetes mellitus mortality rate. Method: Trends in genderspecific coefficients of diabetes mortality rate from 1981 to 2001 in Belarus were analyzed in relation to trends in the level of different types of alcoholic beverages sales per capita by using time series analysis. Results: The analysis suggested a positive and statistically significant effect of changes in strong spirits (vodka) per capita sale on diabetes mortality rate among male and female. Conclusion: This paper presents new epidemiological evidence of aggregate level relation between diabetes mortality rate and strong spirits sale per capita.References
