TL;DR: Results demonstrating a higher therapeutic effect of naltrexone in Korean alcohol-dependent individuals with the Asp40 variant genotype than the Asn40 genotype are consistent with previous study results in individuals of European descent.

TL;DR: It is suggested that having one or two copies of the A118G allele is common among Koreans and may be an important genetic factor in the etiology of alcohol dependence and the frequency of alcohol consumption.

TL;DR: The results of this experiment demonstrate that naltrexone, at the higher dose but not the lower dose, significantly reduced alcohol consumption.

TL;DR: The results of this experiment suggest that alcohol consumption is mediated by both μ- and δ-opioid receptor subtypes, and naltrindole is equally effective at reducing alcohol consumption in a limited access model compared to a saline control group.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the anankastic, asocial and dissocial domains show good discrimination, whereas the anxious-dependent and emotionally unstable ones overlap too much and have been subsequently revised.
