- Background: Alcohol use is a leading risk factor for death and disability, but its overall association with health remains complex given the possible protective effects of moderate alcohol consumption on some conditions. With our comprehensive approach to health accounting within the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016, we generated improved estimates of alcohol use and alcohol-attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) for 195 locations from 1990 to 2016, for both sexes and for 5-year age groups between the ages of 15 years and 95 years and older.Methods: Using 694 data sources of individual and population-level alcohol consumption, along with 592 prospective and retrospective studies on the risk of alcohol use, we produced estimates of the prevalence of current drinking, abstention, the distribution of alcohol consumption among current drinkers in standard drinks daily (defined as 10 g of pure ethyl alcohol), and alcohol-attributable deaths and DALYs. We made several methodological improvements compared with previous estimates: first, we adjusted alcohol sales estimates to take into account tourist and unrecorded consumption; second, we did a new meta-analysis of relative risks for 23 health outcomes associated with alcohol use; and third, we developed a new method to quantify the level of alcohol consumption that minimises the overall risk to individual health.Findings: Globally, alcohol use was the seventh leading risk factor for both deaths and DALYs in 2016, accounting for 2.2% (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 1.5-3.0) of age-standardised female deaths and 6.8% (5.8-8.0) of age-standardised male deaths. Among the population aged 15-49 years, alcohol use was the leading risk factor globally in 2016, with 3.8% (95% UI 3.2-4-3) of female deaths and 12.2% (10.8-13-6) of male deaths attributable to alcohol use. For the population aged 15-49 years, female attributable DALYs were 2.3% (95% UI 2.0-2.6) and male attributable DALYs were 8.9% (7.8-9.9). The three leading causes of attributable deaths in this age group were tuberculosis (1.4% [95% UI 1. 0-1. 7] of total deaths), road injuries (1.2% [0.7-1.9]), and self-harm (1.1% [0.6-1.5]). For populations aged 50 years and older, cancers accounted for a large proportion of total alcohol-attributable deaths in 2016, constituting 27.1% (95% UI 21.2-33.3) of total alcohol-attributable female deaths and 18.9% (15.3-22.6) of male deaths. The level of alcohol consumption that minimised harm across health outcomes was zero (95% UI 0.0-0.8) standard drinks per week.Interpretation: Alcohol use is a leading risk factor for global disease burden and causes substantial health loss. We found that the risk of all-cause mortality, and of cancers specifically, rises with increasing levels of consumption, and the level of consumption that minimises health loss is zero. These results suggest that alcohol control policies might need to be revised worldwide, refocusing on efforts to lower overall population-level consumption.

- AIMS: The MiniMed™ 670G system has been available in Europe since October 2018. Herein, the system's real-world performance in individuals with diabetes is evaluated.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data uploaded October 2018 to July 2020 by individuals living in Europe were aggregated and retrospectively analyzed. The mean Glucose Management Indicator (GMI), percentage of time spent within (TIR), below (TBR) and above (TAR) glycemic ranges, system use and insulin consumed in users with ≥10 days of SG data after initial Auto Mode start were determined. Another analysis based on suboptimally- (GMI >8.0%) and well-controlled (GMI <7.0%) glycemia pre-Auto Mode initiation was also performed.RESULTS: Users (N=14,899) spent a mean of 81.4% of the time in Auto Mode and achieved a mean GMI of 7.0±0.4%, TIR of 72.0±9.7%, TBR <3.9 mmol/L of 2.4±2.1% and TAR >10 mmol/L of 25.7±10%, after initiating Auto Mode. When compared to pre-Auto Mode initiation, GMI reduced by 0.3±0.4% and TIR increased by 9.6±9.9% (p<0.0001 for both). Significantly improved glycemic control was observed irrespectively of pre-Auto Mode GMI level <7.0% or >8.0%. While total daily dose of insulin increased for both groups, a greater increase was observed in the latter: an increase due primarily to increased basal insulin delivery. In contrast, basal insulin decreased slightly in well-controlled users.CONCLUSIONS: Most MiniMed™ 670G system users in Europe achieved TIR >70% and GMI <7% while minimizing hypoglycemia, in a real-world environment. These international consensus-met outcomes were enabled by automated insulin delivery meeting real-time insulin requirements adapted to each individual user.
