Selection biases may lead to systematic overestimate of protective effects from
'moderate'alcohol consumption. Overall, most sources of selection bias favor low‐volume …

Objective: Previous meta-analyses of cohort studies indicate a J-shaped relationship
between alcohol consumption and all-cause mortality, with reduced risk for low-volume …

Aims Many observational studies suggest that increased drinking frequency is associated
with reduced mortality among those with low‐dose alcohol consumption. The purpose of this …

The heart and vascular system are susceptible to the harmful effects of alcohol. Alcohol is an
active toxin that undergoes widespread diffusion throughout the body, causing multiple …

Background A large body of research suggests that light or moderate alcohol consumption is
associated with reduced all-cause mortality. However, concerns remain that the observed …

Importance A previous meta-analysis of the association between alcohol use and all-cause
mortality found no statistically significant reductions in mortality risk at low levels of …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the association of alcohol consumption
and cardiovascular mortality in the US population. Background: Alcohol consumption has …

For almost a century, the scientific community is aware of the J-shaped curve between
alcohol consumption and all-cause mortality. Moderate drinkers seem to live longer than …

Background There is evidence that low‐level alcohol use, drinking 1 to 2 drinks on occasion,
is protective for cardiovascular disease, but increases the risk of cancer. Synthesizing the …

A large body of scientific evidence associates the moderate intake of alcohol with reduced
mortality among middle-aged and older people in industrialized societies. This association …
