This Data in Brief article contains further sensitivity analysis data related to the article Alcohol consumption and mortal-ity: the Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health (LURIC) study [1] . Alcohol consumption data of participants in LURIC was collected using a questionnaire. This data was used to calculate the amount of alcohol consumption in g ethanol per day by using standard volumes and standard vol-% in differ-ent beverages in Germany. The data shown here provide re-sults from the LURIC study stratified by gender. Furthermore, the LURIC study results were reproduced using other classi-fications, which were stratified in different literature data. In addition, our analysis provides data of alcohol consumption for smokers and non-smokers in the LURIC study cohort separately. (c) 2022 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Inc.
