Effects of beer, wine, and liquor in coronary deaths
C. H. Hennekens, W. Willett, B. Rosner, D. S. Cole and S. L. Mayrent
For a series of 568 married men who died of coronary heart disease and an
equal number of matched control subjects, information was collected on a
large number of variables, including daily alcohol consumption classified
by type of beverage, namely, beer, wine, or liquor. Daily consumption of
small to moderate amounts of alcohol (2 oz [59.2mL] or less daily) was
inversely related to coronary death. This inverse relation was present in
both crude and adjusted matched-pair analyses and was similar for each type
of alcohol, as indicated by adjusted relative risks of 0.3 for beer, 0.3
for wine, and 0.2 for liquor. In contrast, for heavy drinking, there was no
association with coronary death in either crude or adjusted analyses.
