Even just 1 alcoholic drink a day may increase blood pressure

定期饮用酒精饮料——即使每天只喝一杯——可能会随着年龄的增长而升高血压水平, a new research analysis suggests.

The study, 周一发表在美国心脏协会杂志《沙巴体育平台点击进入》上, 研究发现,那些经常喝少量酒的人的血压测量值比那些根本不喝酒的人上升得更多. The analysis examined data from seven studies in the U.S., Korea and Japan.

“我们有些惊讶地发现,随着沙巴足球体育平台的推移,与不饮酒相比,饮用本来就很低的酒精也会导致血压升高,尽管远远低于酗酒者的血压升高。," Dr. Marco Vinceti, the study's senior author, said in a news release. Vinceti是意大利摩德纳大学医学院和雷焦艾米利亚大学的流行病学和公共卫生教授,也是波士顿大学公共卫生学院流行病学系的兼职教授.

High blood pressure, or hypertension, 是心血管疾病的一个重要但可预防的危险因素吗. Nearly half of U.S. adults have high blood pressure, but because there are often no symptoms, many don't know they have it unless they're checking for it.

先前的研究表明酒精饮料的摄入量和血压水平之间存在联系. 但定期少量饮酒与血压水平之间的关系尚不清楚. 美国心脏协会建议饮酒者将酒精饮料的摄入量限制在男性每天两杯,女性每天一杯. 一杯酒相当于12盎司的普通啤酒,5盎司的葡萄酒或1盎司的啤酒.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. 美国心脏协会还鼓励那些还不喝酒的人不要开始喝酒.

The new analysis looked at health data for 19,548 adults in the U.S., Korea and Japan, 发现在4到12年的随访期间血压测量持续上升, whether people had low or high consumption of alcohol. The participants ranged in age from 20 to their early 70s, 在研究开始时,没有人患有高血压.

比较经常喝酒的人和从不喝酒的人, 研究人员发现,饮酒的人收缩压(最高值)和舒张压(最低值)升高得更多. The systolic reflects pressure when the heart beats. 当心脏处于静止状态时,舒张压反映了搏动之间血管的压力.

在美国,每天平均饮用12克酒精的人(相当于略少于一杯标准酒精饮料).S. – systolic blood pressure rose 1.25 mmHg over five years. 每天平均饮用48克酒精的人,收缩压会升高4.9 mmHg over the study period.

Diastolic blood pressure rose 1.在研究期间,平均每天饮用12克酒精的男性的酒精含量减少了14毫米汞柱.1 mmHg in men who drank an average 48 grams of alcohol per day. 女性的舒张压变化与酒精饮料的摄入无关. 舒张压测量不像收缩压测量那样被认为是心血管疾病的强有力的预测因子.

研究人员表示,他们的分析是基于消耗的酒精克数,而不仅仅是饮料的数量,因为他们希望避免因不同国家和不同类型的饮料中“标准饮料”的酒精含量不同而产生的偏见.

"Alcohol is certainly not the sole driver of increases in blood pressure; however, our findings confirm it contributes in a meaningful way," Vinceti said. "Limiting alcohol intake is advised, and avoiding it is even better."
