Background: This study examined changes in alcohol drinking patterns (DP) and associated variables in a Mediterranean country. Methods: Changes in DP between baseline (2008-2010) and follow-up (2012-2013) were examined on a Spanish population-based cohort of 2254 adults (18-59 years) using multinomial logistic regression. Heavy consumption was defined as >= 40 g/day of alcohol in men (>= 24 g/day in women) and binge drinking (BD) as the intake of >= 80 g of alcohol in men (>= 60 g in women) on one occasion in the previous month. Six patterns were defined: (1) non-drinkers; (2) ex-drinkers; (3) moderate drinkers without BD (MNB); (4) moderate drinkers with BD (MB); (5) heavy drinkers without BD (HNB); and (6) heavy drinkers with BD (HB). Results: Overall, 45.2% of participants changed DP during follow-up. Over 24% of non-drinkers and 19.4% of ex-drinkers at baseline qualified as MNB at follow-up. The largest flow was from HNB to MNB (57.1%). Light-drinking patterns experienced the largest gains (ex-drinkers: 37.5% and MNB: 66.7%) by absorbing individuals lost by heavy-drinking patterns (MB: 50.8% and HNB: 48.4%). Men, younger individuals, and current smokers were more likely to report heavy-drinking patterns at one or both assessments. Being married or employed increased the likelihood of reporting light-drinking patterns at both surveys (p<0.05). Improving physical quality of life and exercise were associated with a shift from light-to heavy-drinking pattern during follow-up (p<0.05). Conclusions: DP in Spain changed over 3 years with a tendency to regress toward moderate patterns. Repeated measures of alcohol intake may reduce classification errors and biased results when examining the impact of alcohol on health. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
