“…Similarly, a short-term alcohol intake (Hendriks et al, 1994;Johansen et al, 1999) or consumption for longer periods (Dimmitt et al, 1998), also increased plasma tPA Ag in healthy subjects. Our data are consistent with those ®ndings, which were interpreted as potentially bene®cial in the context of CV risk.…”

“…Binge drinking has been associated with a higher pressor effect (Moreira et al, 1998;Rakic et al, 1998), although this effect appears to be timedependent. Consumption of wine with the evening meal has also been associated with an increase in plasminogen activator activity early in the next morning (Hendricks et al, 1994;Muller & Fugelsang, 1994). Further, in Northern Ireland, alcohol is mostly consumed outside meals, whereas in France it is mostly consumed with meals, and it has been shown that the pharmacological effect of ethanol can be in¯uenced by meals (Jones et al, 1997).…”

“…Although some authors have found that the protective effect of wine is superior to that of other alcoholic beverages (Rosenberg et al, 1981;Renaud & De Lorgeril, 1992;Goldberg, 1995), those results have not been con®rmed in other studies (Hennekens et al, 1979;Marques-Vidal et al, 1995). The mechanisms by which moderate alcoholic beverages consumption decreases coronary artery disease include the increase of high density lipoprotein levels (Gaziano et al, 1993;Marques-Vidal et al, 1995;Parker et al, 1996;Paunio et al, 1996), the modi®cation of hemostatic parameters (Sumi et al, 1988;Owens et al, 1990;Hendricks et al, 1994;Pellegrini et al, 1996) and the inhibition of lipoprotein oxidation by phenolic components present in red wine (Anonymous, 1993;Frankel et al, 1993;Kinsella et al, 1993;Sera®ni et al, 1994;Me Ârillon et al, 1997). However, although there is de®nitely a biological effect of alcohol, differences in consumption patterns and in lifestyle can also partly account for the relationship between alcohol consumption and coronary artery disease.…”

“…Smoking is associated with increased levels of procoagulative factors, e.g. fibrinogen [35] and reduced fibrinolytic capacity [36], while moderate alcohol consumption has been shown to influence the levels of fibrinolytic factors [37][38][39]. In fact haemostatic factors have been suggested to be on the eventual pathway to the protective effect of alcohol.…”
