When stratified by menopausal status, the association with alcohol appeared stronger among postmenopausal women, but the interaction was not significant (p=0.74) (eTable 1). We also evaluated whether the associations varied by type of alcohol and found little difference (RR per 10 gms/day for wine 1.12 (95% CI 1.07-1.18), beer 1.09 (95% CI 1.03-1.15) and liquor 1.09 (95% CI 1.05-1.13)).
