Excessive and chronic ethanol consumption exerts deleterious and diffused effects on the myocardium, independent of coronary atherosclerosis, arterial hypertension, valvular disease or congenital heart disease. Although the effects of chronic alcoholism on systolic cardiac function are well known, diastolic involvement has been evaluated only partially. This short review summarizes the experimental and clinical evidence for alcohol-induced cardiac disease.
过量和长期饮酒会对心肌产生有害且广泛的影响，与冠状动脉粥样硬化、动脉高血压、瓣膜疾病或先天性心脏病无关。尽管慢性酒精中毒对心脏收缩功能的影响已为人熟知，但对舒张功能的影响仅得到部分评估。这篇简短综述总结了酒精性心脏病的实验和临床证据。
