Abstract
|
|
|
A 10-year prospective Korean cohort study investigated the relationship between alcohol consumption and the risks of hypertension (HTN) and diabetes mellitus (DM). A total of 5854 cohort members [2774 male and 3080 female participants]
and 7280 cohort members [3447 male and 3833 female participants] were analyzed for HTN and DM, respectively. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to obtain hazard ratios and its 95% confidence interval. Potential risk
factors such as age, gender, income, occupation, education level, marital status, body mass index, family history of H TN and DM, smoking status, sleep duration, presence of snoring or apnea, physical activity, and psychological status were
considered in the model. Each factor was selected using the stepwise selection method. In the final models for HTN and DM, it was found that any amount of alcohol consumed significantly increased the risk of HTN and an average daily alcohol consumption greater than 15g significantly increased the risk of DM. In addition, a diagnosis of HTN significantly increased the risk of DM. Based on these findings, this study recommended implementing a tentative guideline for alcohol
consumption to prevent HTN and DM. Furthermore, abstaining from alcohol consumption was recommended.
