The year-on-year variation shows an annual growth rate of approximately 1%. Assuming the value in 2023 was consistently growing at this pace, the CAGR for the period from 2024 to 2028 is slightly over 1%, pointing towards a continuous rise in cases.
Future trends to watch for include:
- The impact of public health interventions aiming to reduce alcohol consumption.
