Description
Ana Vitória Corrêa Lima and co-authors report a trial from 2026 on risky drinking among women in Brazil. The work tested a short talk by phone, led by a nurse, for women seen in primary care. One hundred fifty one women from four sites in São Paulo took part.
Women in the phone group had lower scores on a standard alcohol test in the first six months. The gain then faded over time, while scores in the group that got feedback only tended to rise. Race and home income were also linked to scores. The authors say one short call may not hold change for long, and they suggest added booster calls or light follow up care.
