Abstract

This review and commentary discusses the following new study published in PLoS Medicine (a peer-reviewed open-access journal):

Ray JG, Moineddin R, Bell CM, Thiruchelvam D, Creatore MI, et al. (2008) Alcohol sales and risk of serious assault. PLoS Med 5(5): e104. doi:10.1371/journal.pmed.0050104

In a population-based case-crossover analysis, Joel Ray and colleagues find that the risk of being a victim of serious assault increases with retail alcohol sales, especially among young urban men.
