[Prospective study about some of the cardiovascular effects of alcohol in 200 patients between 2006-2008]
1Cabinet Medical Individual Procardia Iaşi.
Unlabelled:
There are many controversial concerning the role of alcohol in these diseases.
Material And Methods:
The aim of the study is to underline some of the risks and benefits of alcohol consumption in cardiovascular system, using Holtter ECG and measuring the levels of some blood constants. The study was conducted of 200 individuals of urban and rural areas of Iasi county (100 being alcohol consumers), during the 2006-2008.
Results:
The cardiac arrhythmias are more frequent in rural alcoholic women, and the diastolic disturbances in drinkers. Prevalence of myocardial infarction is higher in urban non-alcoholic men.
Conclusion:
Even there are some benefits, the alcohol consumption still remain a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. A clearer conclusion can be made if the daily alcohol intake is precisely evaluated, knowing that the patients' personal appreciation of alcohol dozes could be an error factor for the study.
