  1. Number of alcohol-attributable DALYs for each type of cancer, stratified by sex and alcohol consumption category. The denominator for the population attributable fraction is the total number of DALYs due to that specific type of cancer. E.g., 6% of all DALYs due to colorectal cancer in men can be attributed to alcohol consumption
  2. PAF, population attributable fraction
