☆ In this article, the term acute—used in reference to, for example, a ‘shift in hemostatic balance, effect or effects on a phenomenon, and alcohol intake—reflects what is observed or occurs within a 24-h period. The term chronic—used in reference to alcohol consumption—reflects a pattern of drinking in terms of years but at least longer than 3 months.
