Tipologías de consumidores de alcohol dentro de la práctica del botellón en tres ciudades españolas
2010
In this work, 6,009 youngsters (14-25 years old) who practice the «botellon» were interviewed in three cities of the Valencian Community. After a stratifi ed sampling among college and noncollege students, a two-step cluster analysis was carried out for each sample with two aims: to identify different types of alcohol consumers in the practice of the «botellon» and to carry out a crossed validation of the results obtained. The variables included in the analysis were the following: gender, age group (university students: U; adolescent students: ES), performance of intensive episodes of consumption (yes/no), number of years practicing the «botellon» and grams of alcohol ingested. The results …
MicroRNAs and Drinking : Association between the Pre-miR-27a rs895819 Polymorphism and Alcohol Consumption in a Mediterranean Population
2016
Recently, microRNAs (miRNA) have been proposed as regulators in the different processes involved in alcohol intake, and differences have been found in the miRNA expression profile in alcoholics. However, no study has focused on analyzing polymorphisms in genes encoding miRNAs and daily alcohol consumption at the population level. Our aim was to investigate the association between a functional polymorphism in the pre-miR-27a (rs895819 A>G) gene and alcohol consumption in an elderly population. We undertook a cross-sectional study of PREvención con DIeta MEDiterránea (PREDIMED)-Valencia participants (n = 1007, including men and women aged 67 7 years) and measured their alcohol consumption (to…
Conductes de risc associades en jugadors patològics i professionals de pòquer i escacs
2016
espanolEl juego esta cada dia mas presente en la sociedad con prevalencias muy importantes, sobre todo, en jovenes y adolescentes. Como consecuencia, este estudio tiene como objetivo estudiar la relacion entre el juego patologico, el juego a nivel aficionado el juego profesional (ajedrez y poquer) en el control de impulsos y en el consumo de alcohol. Para ello, se ha utilizado una muestra compuesta por jugadores aficionados y profesionales de ajedrez y poquer, un grupo de jugadores patologicos y un grupo control. Los instrumentos han medido conducta de riesgo de ingesta de alcohol, control de impulsos y los criterios diagnosticos de juego patologico. Los principales resultados han mostrado …
Efectos del alcohol y conducción de vehículos: creencias y conductas de los jóvenes
2002
Los accidentes de tráfico son una de las principales causas de mortalidad entre I y 45 años (Generalitat de Catalunya, 1992 ; Montoro, et al., 1995). Numerosos estudios constatan que la siniestralidad viaria está relacionada con el consumo de alcohol (Montoro, 1997). Este problema es especialmente importante en la población joven y se incrementa durante las madrugadas de los fines de semana (Pedragosa,1995; Summala y Mikkola, 1994). Algunos estudios ponen de manifiesto la falta de información y/o conocimientos de muchos jóvenes sobre la normativa vigente que regula el consumo de alcohol de los conductores, así como de los efectos de esta droga sobre el consu¬midor (Reppetto y Senra, 1997; T…
Shared genetic risk between eating disorder- and substance-use-related phenotypes: Evidence from genome-wide association studies
2020
AbstractEating disorders and substance use disorders frequently co-occur. Twin studies reveal shared genetic variance between liabilities to eating disorders and substance use, with the strongest associations between symptoms of bulimia nervosa (BN) and problem alcohol use (genetic correlation [rg], twin-based=0.23-0.53). We estimated the genetic correlation between eating disorder and substance use and disorder phenotypes using data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Four eating disorder phenotypes (anorexia nervosa [AN], AN with binge-eating, AN without binge-eating, and a BN factor score), and eight substance-use-related phenotypes (drinks per week, alcohol use disorder [AUD], …
Statistical and biological gene-lifestyle interactions of MC4R and FTO with diet and physical activity on obesity: new effects on alcohol consumption
2012
Background: Fat mass and obesity (FTO) and melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) and are relevant genes associated with obesity. This could be through food intake, but results are contradictory. Modulation by diet or other lifestyle factors is also not well understood. Objective: To investigate whether MC4R and FTO associations with body-weight are modulated by diet and physical activity (PA), and to study their association with alcohol and food intake. Methods: Adherence to Mediterranean diet (AdMedDiet) and physical activity (PA) were assessed by validated questionnaires in 7,052 high cardiovascular risk subjects. MC4R rs17782313 and FTO rs9939609 were determined. Independent and joint associati…
Alcohol intake, wine consumption and the development of depression: the PREDIMED study
2013
Abstract Background Alcoholic beverages are widely consumed. Depression, the most prevalent mental disorder worldwide, has been related to alcohol intake. We aimed to prospectively assess the association between alcohol intake and incident depression using repeated measurements of alcohol intake. Methods We followed-up 5,505 high-risk men and women (55 to 80 y) of the PREDIMED Trial for up to seven years. Participants were initially free of depression or a history of depression, and did not have any history of alcohol-related problems. A 137-item validated food frequency questionnaire administered by a dietician was repeated annually to assess alcohol intake. Participants were classified as…
