Studies have suggested that wine drinkers are at lower risk of death than beer or spirits drinkers. The aim of this study is to examine whether the risk of becoming a heavy or excessive drinker differs among individuals who prefer different types of alcoholic beverages.
In a longitudinal study of 10,330 moderate drinkers from Copenhagen, Denmark, we used logistic regression analyses to address the risk of becoming a heavy or excessive drinker (above 14 and 21 drinks per week, respectively, for women and above 21 and 35 drinks per week for men) according to preference of wine, beer, or spirits.
Compared with those who preferred wine, those who preferred beer tended to have increased risk of becoming heavy and excessive drinkers. Women who preferred beer had odds ratios of 1.14 (95% CI = 0.87-1.50) for becoming heavy drinkers and 1.50 (95% CI = 0.93-2.43) for becoming excessive drinkers. For men who preferred beer the ORs were 1.16 (95% CI = 0.84-1.58) and 1.81 (95% CI = 0.85-3.82).
The finding that moderate wine drinkers appear to be at lower risk of becoming heavy and excessive drinkers may add to the explanation of the reported beverage-specific differences in morbidity and mortality.
研究表明，饮用葡萄酒者的死亡风险低于饮用啤酒或烈酒者。本研究的目的是探讨在偏好不同类型酒精饮料的个体中，成为重度饮酒者或过度饮酒者的风险是否存在差异。
在一项对丹麦哥本哈根10330名适度饮酒者的纵向研究中，我们使用逻辑回归分析，根据对葡萄酒、啤酒或烈酒的偏好，探讨成为重度饮酒者或过度饮酒者（女性每周分别超过14杯和21杯，男性每周分别超过21杯和35杯）的风险。
与偏好葡萄酒的人相比，偏好啤酒的人成为重度饮酒者和过度饮酒者的风险往往增加。偏好啤酒的女性成为重度饮酒者的比值比为1.14（95%可信区间=0.87-1.50），成为过度饮酒者的比值比为1.50（95%可信区间=0.93-2.43）。对于偏好啤酒的男性，比值比分别为1.16（95%可信区间=0.84-1.58）和1.81（95%可信区间=0.85-3.82）。
适度饮用葡萄酒者成为重度饮酒者和过度饮酒者的风险似乎较低，这一发现可能有助于解释所报道的不同饮料在发病率和死亡率方面的差异。
