N2 - Background: Alcoholic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a form of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) occurring secondary to long-standing heavy alcohol use and is associated with poor outcomes, but the cause-specific risks are insufficiently understood. Method: Between 1997 and 2018, we identified all patients with a first diagnosis of ACM or DCM. The cumulative incidence of different causes of hospitalisation and mortality in the two groups was calculated using the Fine–Gray and Kaplan–Meier methods. Results: A Total of 1,237 patients with ACM (mean age 56.3±10.1 years, 89% men) and 17,211 individuals with DCM (mean age 63.6±13.8 years, 71% men) were identified. Diabetes (10% vs 15%), hypertension (22% vs 31%), and stroke (8% vs 10%) were less common in ACM than DCM, whereas obstructive lung disease (15% vs 12%) and liver disease (17% vs 2%) were more prevalent (p<0.05). Cumulative 5-year mortality was 49% in ACM vs 33% in DCM, p<0.0001, multivariable adjusted hazards ratio 2.11 (95% confidence interval 1.97–2.26). The distribution of causes of death was similar in ACM and DCM, with the predominance of cardiovascular causes in both groups (42% in ACM vs 44% in DCM). 5-year cumulative incidence of heart failure hospitalisations (48% vs 54%) and any somatic cause (59% vs 65%) were also similar in ACM vs DCM. At 1 year, the use of beta blockers (55% vs 80%) and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (3% vs 14%) were significantly less often used in ACM vs DCM. Conclusions: Patients with ACM had similar cardiovascular risks and hospitalisation patterns as other forms of DCM, but lower use of guideline-directed cardiovascular therapies and greater mortality.
