Abstract
Alcohol-related dementia (ARD) is a controversial concept. Alcohol-related brain damage (ARBD) is a term used to cover a spectrum of conditions and disorders: this includes alcohol-related dementia, Korsakoff's syndrome, Wernicke's encephalopathy, alcohol-related brain injury, and alcohol amnesic syndrome. In other words, these are the conditions that have been induced by chronic alcohol consumption, resulting in some degree of brain damage. The prevalence data are varied.
