15 Ιαν 2010 · The purpose of this article is to review physio-pathological effects of alcohol on cardiovascular and related systems and to describe its role in hypertension and cardiovascular disease.
Heavy alcohol intake seems to increase the risk of several cardiovascular diseases, such as hemorrhagic stroke, arrhythmia and heart failure. On the other hand, alcohol may act to prevent atherosclerosis and to decrease the risk of ischemic heart disease, mainly by increasing HDL cholesterol and inhibiting thrombus formation.
1 Ιαν 2017 · Data from isolated papillary and heart muscle cell (myocyte) experiments demonstrate that acute physiologic intoxicating doses of alcohol (80 mg% to 250 mg%) can have a negative inotropic effect (Danziger et al. 1991; Guarnieri and Lakatta 1990).
Results: Heavy alcohol consumption causes resistant hypertension, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, hemorrhagic strokes, as well as hepatic cirrhosis and pancreatitis. Excessive drinking is the third most preventable cause of death worldwide behind hypertension and smoking. Conclusions:
2 Μαρ 2016 · Alcohol has biphasic and complex physiological effects that result in both higher and lower cardiovascular risk depending on the amount consumed, drinking frequency, and the outcome under study. 1,2 For instance, moderate and high alcohol intake is associated with increased heart rate, 3 electromechanical delay, 4 and impaired fibrinolysis 5 ...
Ethanol induces ACM in a dose-dependent manner, independently of nutrition, vitamin, or electrolyte disturbances. It has synergistic effects with other heart risk factors. ACM produces a progressive reduction in myocardial contractility and heart chamber dilatation, leading to heart failure episodes and arrhythmias.
