As a result, it has been reported that abuse of alcohol contributes to over 3 million deaths each year globally and is one of the world’s leading risk factors of morbidity, mortality and disability among adolescents.

Method: The study was categorized into 3 groups comprising of non-drinkers (0 g/day), low drinkers (≤ 46 g/day), and high drinkers (≥ 46 g/day).
