Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A study of Asian-American students suggested a positive association between inactive ALDH2*2 and susceptibility to hangover. A biomarker for moderate-to-heavy drinking in persons with inactive aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) is increased mean corpuscular volume (MCV). METHODS: Associations between hangover and ALDH2 genotype, alcohol flushing, and MCV were examined for 251 Japanese workers (139 men,...
