Abstract
Background:
Sustained high alcohol intake is necessary but not sufficient to produce alcohol-related cirrhosis. Identification of risk factors, apart from lifetime alcohol exposure, would assist in discovery of mechanisms and prediction of risk.
Methods:
We conducted a multi-centre case-control study (GenomALC) comparing 1293 cases (with alcohol-related cirrhosis, 75.6% male) and 754 controls (with equivalent alcohol exposure but no evidence of liver disease, 73.6% male). Information confirming or
excluding cirrhosis, and on alcohol intake and other potential risk factors, was obtained from clinical records and by interview. Case-control differences in risk factors discovered in the GenomALC participants were validated using similar data from 407 cases and 6573 controls from UK Biobank.
Results:
The GenomALC case and control groups reported similar lifetime alcohol intake (1374 versus 1412 kg). Cases had a higher prevalence of diabetes (20.5% (262/1288) versus 6.5% (48/734), p = 2.27 x 10 -18 ) and higher pre-morbid BMI (26.37 ± 0.16 kg/m 2 ) than controls (24.44 ± 0.18 kg/m 2 , p = 5.77 x 10 -15 ). Controls were significantly
more likely to have been wine drinkers, coffee drinkers, smokers and cannabis users than cases. Cases reported a higher proportion of parents who died from liver disease than controls (OR 2.25 95% CI 1.55 to 3.26). Data from UK Biobank confirmed these findings for diabetes, BMI, proportion of alcohol as wine and coffee consumption.
Conclusions:
If these relationships are causal, measures such as weight loss, intensive treatment of diabetes or pre-diabetic states, and coffee consumption should reduce risk of alcoholrelated cirrhosis.
