Why the study?

Does alcohol consumption increase ambulatory blood pressure in adults with normal or untreated elevated blood pressure?

Population

248 subjects with normal or elevated and untreated blood pressure, mean age 50.8, 54.4% women.

Design

Cohort

Authors

STSheldon W. Tobe HSH SOBERMAN AKA KISS

Discussion

Member takes

Overview

Alcohol ≥10 drinks/week was associated with higher ambulatory SBP, especially in women; extends observational data but leaves causal effects on BP open.

Structured PICO

Does alcohol consumption increase ambulatory blood pressure in adults with normal or untreated elevated blood pressure?

Population

248 subjects with normal or elevated and untreated blood pressure, mean age 50.8, 54.4% women.

Intervention

Alcohol consumption (≥ 10 drinks per week)

Outcome

24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressuresurrogate

Alcohol consumption is associated with higher ambulatory systolic blood pressure, an effect that appears more pronounced in women, particularly during spousal contact.
