Abstract
En 中文
Aims: The association between alcohol consumption and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) varies according to the presence of underlying cardiovascular risk factors. Incorporating such risk factors may be important to effectively reduce harmful alcohol use through health guidance. However, whether the risk of alcohol consumption is affected due to renal impairment remains unclear. Methods: A total of 10,583 community-dwelling Japanese adults (mean age 59.4 (SD 10.1) years; 46% men) were followed for 10 years. Alcohol consumption was categorized into five groups for men: never drinkers, former drinkers, light drinkers (<20 g/day), moderate drinkers (20-39 g/day), and heavy drinkers (>= 40 g/day), and four groups for women with moderate and heavy combined. Cox proportional hazards models estimated hazard ratios for incident CVD stratified by the presence or absence of reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (<60 mL/min/1.73m(2)) and proteinuria, with adjustment for confounders. Results: Among men with proteinuria, alcohol consumption was associated with a higher risk of atherosclerotic CVD, whereas an inverse association was observed in men without proteinuria [hazard ratio (95% confidence interval): moderate drinkers without proteinuria, 0.58 (0.34-0.97); moderate drinkers with proteinuria, 3.49 (1.15-10.56)]. Moderate to heavy drinking increased the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage irrespective of the renal status. In women, moderate to heavy drinking was associated with an increased CVD risk only when proteinuria was present. In contrast, a reduced eGFR did not clearly affect the association in either sex. Conclusions: The CVD risk associated with alcohol consumption may differ according to the renal status, particularly depending on the presence or absence of proteinuria.
