Alcohol and Your Ticker - Concurrent Workshop Repeated<br />

Saturday, 11 June 2011 Start 11:00am Duration: 55mins Picasso<br />

Start 12:05pm Duration: 55mins Picasso<br />

A popular if somewhat controversial topic – what should we advise patients regarding alcohol and their<br />

hearts? This presentation reviews the literature since Graham’s NZ Family Physician April 2007 review<br />

paper Drink to your health – is alcohol really cardioprotective? (download from http://www.rnzcgp.org.<br />

nz/assets/documents/Publications/Archive-NZFP/April-2007-NZFP-Vol-34-No-2/GulbransenApril07.pdf)<br />

Epidemiological studies have usually shown a J-shaped curve suggesting that moderate drinkers have a<br />

lower alcohol-related relative risk of cardiovascular disease than abstainers or heavy drinkers. This paper<br />

found that because of confounding and misclassification, such non-randomised uncontrolled studies<br />

can never confirm that ‘a few drinks a day are good for the heart’. Come along to hear what more recent<br />

literature has to say on the topic.<br />
