This research examines the relationship between alcohol usage and blood pressure in the adult population of a small community in Michigan. Findings suggest that blood pressure varies with alcohol usage linearly for men with a slight dip at 1-2 drinks per week, and curvilinearly for women with a low point at about 4 drinks per week. A method to measure public norms of alcohol intake and categories of drinking habits is presented. This technique may be useful in constructing drinking categories applicable in a community for both education and therapy.
本研究调查了密歇根州一个小社区成年人群中酒精摄入量与血压之间的关系。研究结果表明，对于男性，血压随酒精摄入量呈线性变化，每周饮用1至2杯时略有下降；对于女性，血压随酒精摄入量呈曲线变化，每周饮用约4杯时降至最低点。本文提出了一种测量酒精摄入量公共规范和饮酒习惯类别的方法。该技术可能有助于构建适用于社区教育和治疗的饮酒类别。
