摘要: This quantitative neuropathological study compared the brains of seventeen alcoholic females with twenty non-alcoholic female controls. There was a significant (P less than 0.001) increase in pericerebral space value (control 9.5; 16.3) indicating shrinkage brain. Cerebral grey and white matter volumes were determined morphometrically. decrease cerebral volume .02) alcoholics. The unchanged. These changes parallel those described previously male Further studies will be necessary to establish relative severity brain damage males females. Language: en
