Diagnosing Alcohol Use Through A Blood Test – Dr. Willard Freeman – Penn State Hershey

ALCOHOLISM ADDICTION Comments Off

www.pennstatehershey.org “Classification of alcohol abuse by plasma protein biomarkers”: Penn State Hershey researchers, working for two-and-a-half years in cooperation with Kathleen A. Grant, Ph.D., at the Oregon National Primate Research Center, identified a set of 17 proteins in the blood that accurately predicted alcohol usage 90 percent of the time in non-human primates. Researchers were able to separate usage into three catergories: no alcohol use, drinking up to two drinks per day, and drinking at least six drinks per day. Protein levels rose and declined depending on alcohol consumption.

Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test (MAST) ~ How does it work?

ALCOHOLISM ADDICTION Comments Off

Question by ebizartistry: Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test (MAST) ~ How does it work?
How does the instrument like the M.A.S.T. work?

Best answer:

Answer by Meg
The MAST is one of the most widely used measures for assessing alcohol abuse. It’s a 25 item questionnaire that asks questions about alcohol-related consequences, and then based on the answers, the clinician can determine how big of a “problem” alcohol is for the patient. Some of the items include questions like, “Do you feel you are a normal drinker?” “Can you stop drinking after one or two drinks without a struggle?” or “Have you ever lost friends because of your drinking?”

Although not intended to be a complete measure of alcohol-related problems, the MAST provides a gross, general measure of lifetime problem severity that can be used for choosing treatment intensity and guiding further inquiry into alcohol-related problems.

ALCOHOLISM ADDICTION 1 Comment »

Here: bit.ly 1. Visit my Blog 2. Fill a Free Survey 3. See the Lincay Lohan Drug Test Article Lindsay Lohan admits her sobriety has suffered a major blow – but she’s trying to get back on track. In a series of Twitter messages, the 24-year-old substance-abusing starlet said she failed a court-ordered drug test – reportedly for cocaine – less than a month after her release from rehab. “Regrettably, I did in fact fail my most recent drug test and if i am asked, I am prepared to appear before Judge (Elden) next week as a result,” Lohan wrote to her 1.1 million followers. The hard-partying “Machete” actress made an immediate effort to get straight – attending an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting Friday night, with plans for another on Saturday, according to Tmz.com. Fox could return Lohan to jail based on the failed test. LiLo did 14 days for probation violations before her Aug. 2 release, followed by 23 days in the rehab.
