| Sumario: | [eng] Introduction and objectives: Alcohol is a toxic substance widely consumed in the world and is responsible for a multitude of pathologies of different organs and body systems. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of alcohol consumption on arterial hypertension, dyslipidaemia and hyperglycaemia. Methodology: A double study was carried out, on the one hand a descriptive and transversal study in 139634 workers and on the other hand a retrospective longitudinal study in 40431 workers. The effect of alcohol consumption and other variables and healthy habits on three cardiovascular risk factors such as arterial hypertension, dyslipidaemia and hyperglycaemia was assessed. Results: All the variables analysed have an influence on the cardiovascular risk factors studied, with alcohol consumption being one of the most influential. Conclusions: Alcohol consumption and other variables favour the appearance of arterial hypertension, dyslipidaemia and hyperglycaemia in our sample. |
