Introduction: The assessment of dietary intake in rural populations can be extremely challenging because of cultural and environmental limitations.Only one other study in India has been conducted to validate a 24 hour dietary recall. The purpose of this study was to validate a three pass 24 hour dietary recall questionnaire, culturally modified for use in South Indian populations, against a series of weighed food records (WFRs). Hypothesis: We assessed the hypothesis that there will be less than 15% variance between amounts of food reported to be consumed in 24 hour dietary recalls and amounts of food weighed during WFRs. Methods: Eight life size food portion photographs of common South Indian food servings were created to aid participant recall. Nutrient intake was calculated using a food database specifically created for South Indian food items. Dietary data were compared between the two dietary assessment methods in 30 adults aged 19-85 years. WFRs were conducted in the household by a trained field worker. The amount of food served by each participant was weighed, along with any left overs not eaten. The following day, field workers administered a 24 hour recall interview to the same participant. Results: In total, 101 replicate weighed food portions were matched with estimated portions by 24 hour recall for 21 different types of food or drink. Overall, there was an 11% over-estimation by 24 hour recall compared to the WFR and a strong correlation between the two measures (r=0.93). Mean nutrient intakes obtained from each measure were not significantly different. Conclusions: The culturally specific modifications made to the 24 hour dietary recall method is valid for assessing energy, macro- and micro- nutrient intake in rural Indian populations.

AbstractObjective:To examine the utility of using external estimates of within-person variation to adjust usual nutrient intake distributions.Design:Analyses of the prevalence of inadequate intake of an example nutrient by the Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) cut-point method using three different methods of statistical adjustment of the usual intake distribution of a single 24-hour recall in Russian children in 1996, using the Iowa State University method for adjustment of the distribution. First, adjusting the usual intake distribution with day 2 recalls from the same 1996 sample (the correct method) second, adjusting the distribution using external variance estimates derived from US children in 1996; and third, adjusting the distribution using external estimates derived from Russian children of the same age in 2000. We also present prevalence estimates based on naïve statistical analysis of the unadjusted distribution of intakes.Setting/subjects:Children drawn from the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey in 1996 and 2000 and from the 1996 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals.Results:When the EAR cut-point method is applied to a single recall, the resulting prevalence estimate in this study is inflated by 100–1300%. When the intake distribution is adjusted using an external variance estimate, the prevalence estimate is much less biased, suggesting that any adjustment may give less biased estimates than no adjustment.Conclusions:In moderately large samples, adjusting distributions with external estimates of variances results in more reliable prevalence estimates than using 1–day data.

The present study analyzes the intake of omega 3 (n-3 PUFAs) and omega 6 (n-6 PUFAs) and dietary sources in a representative sample of Spanish adults. For this purpose 418 adults (18 - 60 y), from 15 Spanish provinces were studied. The intake of energy and nutrients [specifically, the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs,) α-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA); and the n-6 PUFA, linoleic acid (LA)] was determined using a 24-hour recall questionnaire for two days. The Multiple Source Method (MSM) was used to estimate participants’ usual fatty acid intake. The total n-3 PUFAs intake was 1.8 ± 0.60 g/day (ALA: 1.3 ± 0.32, EPA: 0.16 ± 0.14, and DHA: 0.33 ± 0.21 g/day) and n-6 PUFA intake was 11.0 ± 2.7 g/day (LA: 10.8 ± 2.7 g/day). A high proportion of participants did not meet their nutrient intake goals for total n-3 PUFAs (84.7 %), ALA (45.0 %), and EPA plus DHA (62.9 %). The main food sources for ALA were oil, dairy products, and meat; for EPA fish; for DHA, fish, eggs, and meat; and for LA, oils, meat, and cereals. Therefore, an increase in the intake of foods rich in n-3 PUFAs or the use of supplements with n-3 PUFAs might help to improve the n-3 PUFA intake.

Background. Nutritional status is an important determinant of HIV outcomes.Objective. To assess the nutrient intake and nutrient status of HIV seropositive patients attending an AIDS outpatient clinic, to improve the nutritional management of HIV-infected patients.Design. Prospective cohort study.Setting. Comprehensive care clinic in Chulaimbo Sub-District Hospital, Kenya.Subjects. 497 HIV sero-positive adults attending the clinic.Main Outcome Measures. Evaluation of nutrient intake using 24-hour recall, food frequency checklist, and nutrient status using biochemical assessment indicators (haemoglobin, creatinine, serum glutamate pyruvate (SGPT) and mean corpuscular volume (MCV)).Results. Among the 497 patients recruited (M : F sex ratio: 1.4, mean age: 39 years ± 10.5 y), Generally there was inadequate nutrient intake reported among the HIV patients, except iron (10.49 ± 3.49 mg). All the biochemical assessment indicators were within normal range except for haemoglobin 11.2 g/dL (11.4 ± 2.60 male and 11.2 ± 4.25 female).Conclusions. Given its high frequency, malnutrition should be prevented, detected, monitored, and treated from the early stages of HIV infection among patients attending AIDS clinics in order to improve survival and quality of life.

BACKGROUND There are many constraints to conducting national food consumption surveys for the purposes of national nutrition surveillance including cost, time and participant burden. Validated Web-based dietary assessment technologies offer a potential solution to many if these constraints. OBJECTIVE This study investigated the feasibility of using a previously validated, Web-based 24-hour recall dietary assessment tool (Foodbook24) for the purposes of nutrition surveillance by comparing the demographic characteristics and the quality of dietary intake data collected from an online cohort of participants in Ireland to the most recent Irish National Adult Nutrition Survey (NANS). METHODS Irish adult participants (aged 18 and over) were recruited to use Foodbook24 (Web-based tool). Demographic and dietary intake (by means of 2 non-consecutive self-administered 24-hour recalls) data was collected using Foodbook24. Following completion of the study, the dietary intake data collected were statistically weighted to represent the population of participants that completed the National Adult and Nutrition Survey (NANS) (2011) to facilitate the controlled comparison of intake data. Demographic characteristics of survey respondents were investigated using descriptive statistics in SPSS V20. The controlled comparison of weighted mean daily nutrient intake data collected from the Foodbook24 Web-based study (n= 329 plausible reporters) and the mean daily nutrient intake data collected from NANS (n=1051 plausible reporters) was conducted using the Wilcoxon-Mann–Whitney U-test in Creme Nutrition® software. RESULTS The results of this analysis highlight many differences between the demographic characteristics between both sets of survey participants. Notable differences included a lower proportion of adults aged 65 years and over and a higher proportion of females participated in the Web-based Foodbook24 study relative to the NANS study. Similar ranges of mean daily intakes for the majority of nutrients and food groups were observed (e.g. Energy (kcal/day) and Carbohydrate (g/day)), although significant differences for some nutrient (e.g. Riboflavin (mg/10MJ) and Vitamin B12 (µg/10MJ)) and food groups were identified. A high proportion of participants (47%) reported a willingness to continue to use Foodbook24 for an additional 6-month period. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that by using targeted recruitment strategies in the future to ensure the recruitment of a more representative sample, there is potential for Web-based methodologies such as Foodbook24 to be used for nutrition surveillance efforts in Ireland.

Background The growth rate of Indonesian infants beyond sixmonths of age declines compared with that of the internationalreference population.Objective This study aimed to describe the pattern of nutritionalstatus among breastfed children and their intake of energy, pro-tein, and zinc from complementary foods in Purworejo District, Cen-tral Java, Indonesia.Methods The study was a cross sectional survey drawing breastfedchildren under 24 months old from a well-defined population. Chil-dren with a history of prematurity or low birth weight were excluded.Anthropometrical measurements were collected. Intake of comple-mentary food was assessed using 24-hour recall. Analysis of nu-tritional intake was only performed in 11-23 month-old children.Results Of 577 children enrolled, the prevalence of underweight,stunting, and wasting were 8.1%, 8.8%, and 4.6%, respectively.The prevalence of undernutrition increased with age. There wasno association between frequency of breastfeeding during 24 hoursin the second year of life and the nutritional status. The averageintake of energy, protein, and zinc from complementary foods wasvery low i.e., 30%, 45%, and 5% of the Indonesian recommendeddietary allowance (RDA), respectively.Conclusion The prevalence of undernutrition in breastfed chil-dren increases with age. The breastfed children beyond 11 monthsof age in Purworejo District need sufficient density of nutrients fromcomplementary foods.

AbstractObjectiveHousehold budget survey (HBS) data are used regularly for nutritional epidemiological purposes. The validity of HBS data, however, is not well established. The aim of this project was to compare HBS and individual nutrition survey (INS) data in a nationally representative sample of Polish households.DesignEstimates of food consumption and nutrient intake were compared between household food acquisition data collected over 1 month and a single 24-hour recall collected from every household member in a nationally representative sample of Polish households surveyed between September and November 2000. To facilitate the comparison, INS food consumption data excluded food eaten away from home and were modified using a computer program to estimate food ‘as purchased’ (including disaggregation of recipe data) and to allow for wastage.SettingPoland.SubjectsParticipants were 3716 individuals in 1215 households (representing co-operation rates of 86.2% and 89.2%, respectively).ResultsGood agreement was shown between median estimates of foods such as potatoes, vegetables (including processed), meat, meat products and poultry, and animal fats (excluding butter), but agreement was poor for bread and rolls, fruit, vegetable fats and oils, eggs and six other food groups. Estimates of energy and nutrient intake were within ±10% with the exceptions of polyunsaturated fats, potassium and vitamin C.ConclusionsPossible reasons for differences in findings between the two surveys include survey bias (e.g. social approval bias leading to overreporting of fruit), seasonal variations (e.g. high potato purchases between September and November) and aspects of the methodology (e.g. HBS data were based on records collected over 1 month, whereas 24-hour recall data were based on recalls collected from all household respondents on only 1 day and averaged for each household type). HBSs provide useful data for epidemiological research, but findings need to be interpreted in the light of other data regarding consumption, and numerous factors that may affect consumption need to be taken into account.

Kemajuan teknologi dan ekonomi akhir-akhir ini memberikan dampak perubahan pola hidup yang menyebabkan pergeseran pola penyakit. Terlihat pada peningkatan penyakit kardiovaskular pada kelompok eksekutif usia produktif. Hiperkolesterolemia adalah satu-satunya faktor risiko yang dapat menyebabkan timbulanya aterosklerosis. Asupan gizi terkait erat dengan hiperkolesterolemia. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui hubungan antara asupan gizi serta pola makan dengan hiperkolesterolemia pada kalangan eksekutif di Jakarta. Desain penelitian adalah potong lintang. Populasi penelitian adalah kelompok eksekutif Indonesia dewasa berusia 25-60 tahun. Sampel penelitian terdiri dari 280 responden ber- usia 25-60 tahun yang merupakan kelompok eksekutif dari beberapa perusahaan yang ada di sekitar Jakarta. Kadar low density lipoprotein (LDL) kolesterol diperiksa dengan mengumpulkan sampel darah puasa. Asupan gizi dinilai dengan metode 24 hour recall dan pola makan dinilai dengan metode food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Prevalensi hiperkolesterolemia pada kalangan eksekutif 46,1%. Prevalensi hiperkolesterolemia ini lebih tinggi secara bermakna pada laki-laki (50,9%) dibandingkan pada perempuan(29,7%). Prevalensi hiperkolesterolemia cenderung lebih tinggi pada kalangan eksekutif yang berumur di atas 40 tahun, berpendidikan tinggi dan berpenghasilan tinggi. Asupan gizi, khususnya protein hewani serta frekuensi mengonsumsi sapi, memiliki hubungan dengan prevalensi hiperkolesterolemia. Asupan protein nabati, kekerapan mengonsumsi tempe, asupan serat serta kekerapan mengonsumsi sayur dan buah dapat dipertimbangkan sebagai makanan yang protektif atau dapat menurunkan kadar LDL kolesterol dalam darah.Technology and economical development recently poses impact toward changes of lifestyle which cause shifted of the disease pattern. The escalating of cardiovascular appears to be more common among executive productive age group. Hypercholesterolemia is the only risk factor that by itself can cause atherosclerosis. Hypercholesterolemia might be influenced by nutrient intake. The objective of this study is to know the relationship of between nutrient intake as well as food pattern and hypercholesterolemia among executive group surrounding Jakarta. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) content was assessed by collecting fasting blood samples. 24 hour recall and food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was conducted to assess nutrient intake. Prevalence hypercholesterolemia was 46.1% among this excecutive group.The prevalence of hypercholesterolemia was significant higher among men (50.6%) compared to women (29.7%). Hypercholesterolemia prevalence tend to be higher among those who were over 40 years old, had higher education and had higher income. There was a relationship between nutrient intake especially animal protein intake as well as more frequent consuming beef with the prevalence of hypercholesterolemia. Non-animal protein intake, more frequent consuming tempe, fibre intake as well as more frequent consuming fruit and vegetable might be considered as protective food toward lowering effect of the LDL plasma cholesterol level.
