Figure 4:

Gender-stratified hazard ratios for mortality based on frequency of non-binge drinking. Curves correspond to risk for individuals who typically drink 1–2 drinks per occasion and never binge in the NHIS dataset.

*Hazard ratios are adjusted for birth cohort, gender, race, typical drinking quantity when not binge drinking, frequency of binge drinking, health and wellness factors (current smoking status, perceived health status, exercise level, and medical comorbidities), socioeconomic factors (educational attainment, employment status, and whether the household received food stamps in the last calendar year), region of country, and year of survey.
