Rehm, J; Reile, R; Correia, D; Neufeld, M; Jiang, H" Introduction: Estonia is a Baltic country with high adult alcohol per capita (APC) consumption. Since 2013, its alcohol control policy has been guided by the Green Paper on Alcohol Policy (GP), which is the equivalent of a non-binding national alcohol action plan. This contribution attempts to evaluate the overall impact of the GP on APC. Methods: For the overall evaluation, APC was quantitatively compared fo...

Previous studies have reported that intermediate or long CAG expansions in SCA genes have been associated with other neurodegenerative disease. In this study, we screened for the number of CAG repe...
