[Alcohol dependence in primary care : a clinical approach by the GP]
Abstract:
Clinical care to patients with alcohol dependence by GP's is described in this article. First, we have to destigmatize these patients and their illness. Diagnosis approach is specified. Therapeutic approach is first a motivational approach; subsequently it's like pedagogy : it's coping. Care is both physical and psychological. Empathy all along therapeutic relationship is a priority and how establishing a therapeutic alliance is described. A psychiatrist, a psychologist, a care network, self-help associations have also to be called on when needed. Physicians education creates new opportunities since 2016-2017 : in particular SSMG (Scientific Society of Primary Care) and three Belgian universities (UCL, ULB and ULiège) introduced a special study program called «?certificat interuniversitaire d'alcoologie?». Let's hope this new clinical rewarding approach for GP's contribute to reduce the treatment gap as far as clinical care of patients with alcohol dependence is concerned.

Physicians
The physician's primary responsibility is to diagnose illness and direct the medical or surgical treatment of the condition. The authority to admit patients to a healthcare agency or institution and practice care within that setting is granted to physicians by the healthcare agency or institution...

Ethers from Alcohols: Alcohol Dehydration and Williamson Ether Synthesis
Ethers can be prepared from organic compounds by various methods. Some of them are discussed below,
Preparation of Ethers by Alcohol Dehydration
In this method, in the presence of protic acids, alcohol dehydrates to produce alkenes and ethers under different conditions. For example, in the presence of sulphuric acid, dehydration of ethanol at 413 K yields ethoxyethane, whereas it yields ethene at 443 K.
Protection of Alcohols
Protection
It defines a protecting group as the masking agent to make the more reactive species inert to a given set of conditions. This concept is depicted via the illustration of liquid flow through different outlets in an assembly of pipes. The analogy helps to understand the role...
