Elevated mean corpuscular volume (MCV) is a traditional biological marker for alcohol abuse and alcoholism, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. Three recent epidemiologic studies consistently showed that MCV was elevated by alcohol drinking more markedly among individuals with genetically
Hyo-Jung Kwon et al.
Hepatology (Baltimore, Md.), 60(1), 146-157 (2014-02-05)
