Public Library of Science For liquor consumption, a monotonic increase in PD risk was suggested: ORs (95% CI) were 1.06 (0.91, 1.23), 1.22 (0.94, 1.58), and 1.35 (1.02, 1.80) for <1, 1-1.99, and ≥2 drinks/day, respectively (P for trend <0.03). Compared with non-beer drinkers, the multivariate ORs for beer drinkers were 0.79 (95% CI: 0.68, 0.92) for <1 drink/day, 0.73 (95% CI: 0.50, 1.07) for 1-1.99 drinks/day, and 0.86 (95% CI: 0.60, 1.21) for ≥2 drinks/day.

Free PMC article Consumption of alcoholic beverages in the past 12 months was assessed in 1995-1996. Total alcohol consumption was not associated with PD. Additional analyses among exclusive drinkers of one specific type of alcoholic beverage supported the robustness of these findings.
These findings and potential underlying mechanisms warrant further investigations.

Compared with those who consumed beer less than once per month, the relative rate (95% confidence interval) was 0.7 (0.5-0.9) for one to three drinks of beer per month, and 0.7 (0.5, 0.9) for one or more drinks of beer per week. The results for wine consumption were less clear, although a borderline lower PD risk was observed when comparing wine drinkers of 1-1.99 drinks/day with none drinkers (OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.53, 1.02).Conclusions:Our results suggest that beer and liquor consumption may have opposite associations with PD: low to moderate beer consumption with lower PD risk and greater liquor consumption with higher risk. Background:The epidemiologic evidence on alcohol consumption and Parkinson's disease (PD) is equivocal. Total alcohol consumption was not associated with PD. The results for wine consumption were less clear, although a borderline lower PD risk was observed when comparing wine drinkers of 1-1.99 drinks/day with none drinkers (OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.53, 1.02).Conclusions:Our results suggest that beer and liquor consumption may have opposite associations with PD: low to moderate beer consumption with lower PD risk and greater liquor consumption with higher risk. Dive into the research topics of 'Alcohol Consumption, Types of Alcohol, and Parkinson's Disease'. 2017 Jan;8(1):56-68. doi: 10.1111/jdi.12537. Multivariate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were obtained from logistic regression models.Results:A total of 1,113 PD cases diagnosed between 2000 and 2006 were included in the analysis. BACKGROUND: The epidemiologic evidence on alcohol consumption and Parkinson's disease … For liquor consumption, a monotonic increase in PD risk was suggested: ORs (95% CI) were 1.06 (0.91, 1.23), 1.22 (0.94, 1.58), and 1.35 (1.02, 1.80) for <1, 1-1.99, and ≥2 drinks/day, respectively (P for trend <0.03).

Free PMC article Alcohol consumption exists extensively and it acts as one of the environmental factors that promotes these neurodegenerative diseases. We prospectively examined total alcohol consumption and consumption of specific types of alcoholic beverage in relation to future risk of PD.Methods:The study comprised 306,895 participants (180,235 male and 126,660 female) ages 50-71 years in 1995-1996 from the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study.

However, the association differed by types of alcoholic beverages.
