Alcohol Use Disorders and the Lung: A Clinical and
Pathophysiological Approach is an excellent resource for clinicians
who care for individuals affected by alcohol use disorders in
diverse settings. Although alcohol abuse alone does not cause acute
lung injury, it renders the lung susceptible to dysfunction in
response to the inflammatory stresses of sepsis, trauma, and other
clinical conditions recognized to cause acute lung injury. In
parallel, these same pathophysiological effects of alcohol abuse
significantly increase the risk of a wide range of serious lung
infections. Many clinicians involved in the primary treatment of
alcohol use disorders, such as addiction psychiatrists, will find
this text of interest as it will expand their understanding of the
health consequences of alcohol use disorders. In parallel,
clinicians who specialize in pulmonary and/or critical care
medicine will have a unique resource that provides a comprehensive
review of the pathophysiology of alcohol-related lung disorders and
insights into evolving therapeutic options in these vulnerable
individuals. Alcohol Use Disorders and the Lung: A Clinical and
Pathophysiological Approach fills a gap in the literature and
presents the evolving clinical research that may soon lead to novel
therapies that can improve lung health in individuals with alcohol
use disorders and co-existing conditions such as HIV infection.
