Do older adults drink alcohol whilst taking alcohol-interactive medication? Prevalence and ten-year mortality risk
Background: Older people commonly take prescribed medications, some of which are contra-indicated with alcohol. Few population-based studies have assessed the relationship between taking these medicines, different levels of alcohol use, and potential harm. Aims: To investigate the prevalence of taking alcohol-interactive (AI) medication and alcohol consumption among older adults and to compare the ten-year mortality risk among different categorie…
Alcohol Consumption and Adiposity
The evidence on the association between alcohol consumption and adiposity is inconsistent and fragmented. We investigated the longitudinal association between alcohol consumption pattern and four different adiposity markers with repeated measures of adiposity and obesity incidence. We categorized current drinkers based on the sex-specific quartiles of their weekly alcohol consumption and the UK alcohol drinking guidelines. We used multivariable a…
Trajectories of alcohol consumption up to 30 years before and after the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases
BACKGROUND: To examine the longitudinal trajectories of alcohol consumption prior to and following the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). METHODS: We conducted a case-control study of 2501 incident cases of angina, myocardial infarction or stroke and 10 001 matched controls without the condition. Repeated measures of alcohol were centred on the date of diagnosis, spanning up to 30 years before and after CVD onset. Mean trajectories of we…
Hazardous Drinking Prevalence and Correlates in Older New Zealanders
Objectives: The study compared the proportion of older adults identified as drinking hazardously based on the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-Consumption (AUDIT-C) with the older adult-specific Comorbidity Alcohol Risk Evaluation Tool (CARET) and investigated whether sociodemographics, comorbidities, health, medication use, and alcohol-related risk behaviors explained discrepancies between the screens in classification of hazardousness.…
What influences 11-year-olds to drink? Findings from the Millennium Cohort Study
Examining drinking at this point in the lifecourse has potentially important public health implications as around one in seven 11 year olds have drank, although the vast majority are yet to explore alcohol. Findings support interventions working at multiple levels that incorporate family and peer factors to help shape choices around risky behaviours including drinking
The relationship between labour market categories and alcohol use trajectories in midlife
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Studies on the role of labour market position and change in alcohol use during midlife are scarce and their results are inconclusive mainly due to their failure to define comprehensive and distinct labour market groups and the short periods of time studied. In this study we used different activity categories for men and women to examine alcohol use trajectories in midlife covering a period of 17 years. METHODS: Using data fro…
