【medical-news】适量饮酒降低男性高血压患者心脏
2 January 2007
Drinking one or two alcoholic drinks each day reduces the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in men with hypertension, study results suggest.
However, lead researcher Joline Beulens, from Wageningen University in The Netherlands, and colleagues stress that drinking more than this level of alcohol may negatively affect the health of hypertensive patients, given that excess alcohol consumption is associated with an increased risk of high blood pressure.
The researchers analyzed information collected from a study of more than 11,000 men with hypertension that began in 1986.
The participants completed a survey on alcohol consumption every 4 years until 2002, and all cases of MI and stroke during this time were recorded.
In total, 279 fatal and 374 nonfatal MIs occurred during the study period.
Analysis revealed that consuming one to two alcoholic drinks a day was associated with a reduced risk of fatal and nonfatal MI, compared with less frequent or no alcohol consumption.
Furthermore, this relationship remained true after taking into account diet, weight, and physical activity levels among the participants.
However, the team found no evidence to suggest that moderate alcohol consumption reduced the risk of stroke or death from coronary heart disease.
"Because excess alcohol intake clearly increases blood pressure, many men with hypertension are counseled not to drink, but our results suggest that may not be necessary if men drink safely and responsibly," Beulens commented.
Kenneth Mukamal, from Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts, USA, added: "It is important for all individuals with high blood pressure to discuss their alcohol intake with their physicians, as heavy consumption, even occasionally, can raise blood pressure.
"However, our results suggest that men with high blood pressure seem to have the same lower risk associated with moderate drinking that other men do."
The research is published in the current issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine.

适量饮酒降低男性高血压患者心脏病风险
2007年1月2日
Drinking one or two alcoholic drinks each day reduces the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in men with hypertension, study results suggest.
研究结果显示，每日喝一两酒可以减少男性高血压者心肌梗死的风险。
However, lead researcher Joline Beulens, from Wageningen University in The Netherlands, and colleagues stress that drinking more than this level of alcohol may negatively affect the health of hypertensive patients, given that excess alcohol consumption is associated with an increased risk of high blood pressure.
然而，荷兰瓦赫宁根大学的首席研究员Joline Beulens和他的同事们强调，由于过量饮酒与增加血压升高的风险有关，饮酒超过这个量可对高血压患者造成负面影响。
The researchers analyzed information collected from a study of more than 11,000 men with hypertension that began in 1986.
研究人员分析了从1986年起11000多名男性高血压患者的病例资料。
The participants completed a survey on alcohol consumption every 4 years until 2002, and all cases of MI and stroke during this time were recorded.
受试者从2002年起每四年填写一份饮酒量调查表，在此期间所有心肌梗死和中风病例都被记录。
In total, 279 fatal and 374 nonfatal MIs occurred during the study period.
总计，研究期间出现了279次致死性和374次非致死性心肌梗死。
Analysis revealed that consuming one to two alcoholic drinks a day was associated with a reduced risk of fatal and nonfatal MI, compared with less frequent or no alcohol consumption.
分析结果表明了，与饮用更少的酒或不饮酒相比，每日饮一到两口可减少致死性和非致死性心肌梗死的发生。
Furthermore, this relationship remained true after taking into account diet, weight, and physical activity levels among the participants.
此外，在考虑了受试者饮食、体重和体育运动水平后，该结果仍然成立。
However, the team found no evidence to suggest that moderate alcohol consumption reduced the risk of stroke or death from coronary heart disease.
然而，该研究小组没有发现适量的饮酒可减少中风或冠心病死亡的风险的证据。
"Because excess alcohol intake clearly increases blood pressure, many men with hypertension are counseled not to drink, but our results suggest that may not be necessary if men drink safely and responsibly," Beulens commented.
