Objective Using a nationally representative sample, to identify groups among British children aged 11⁄2; – 41⁄2; years who report similar patterns of diet. Design Nationally representative dietary survey, using 4 d weighed dietary records, of girls and boys aged 11⁄2; – 41⁄2; years living in private households in Great Britain in 1992–1993.

Development and simulated validation of a food-frequency questionnaire for the Colombian population
Objective To develop a food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) useful for ranking of nutrient intakes. Design Subjects consuming their regular diet completed 7 days of weighed intake registry (7-WIR). Foods for the FFQ were selected by stepwise multiple regression. The FFQ was then completed for each subject using data on individual food consumption from the 7-WIR. The correlation and agreement between the extrapolated FFQ and the 7-WIR data were asse…
The epidemiology of good nutritional status among children from a population with a high prevalence of malnutrition
Objectives: To identify socio-economic demographic and environmental factors that predict better height-for-age for children under 5 years of age in a Dhaka slum population. Design: A panel survey, conducted between 1995 and 1997. A random sample of households was selected. Socio-economic, demographic and environmental variables were collected monthly by questionnaire and nutritional status was assessed. Setting: Dhaka slums in Bangladesh. Subjec…
Factors affecting nutritional status in female adults in Dhaka slums, Bangladesh
This study looks at women from the slums in Mohammadpur, Dhaka, Bangladesh, where 54 percent of women's BMI was less than 18.5. Fifty percent of the Dhaka slum population lived below the poverty line. Logistic regression showed that women with income above 1,500 taka per capita were 1.78 times more likely to have a higher BMI (odds ratio 1.7863; CI = 0.671-3.639). Women with their own savings were 1.89 times more likely to have higher BMI (odds r…
Livelihoods, nutrition and health in Dhaka slums

Design: A random sample of households participated in a longitudinal study in 1995–1997. Socio-economic and morbidity data were collected monthly by questionnaire and nutritional status was assessed. Cluster analysis was used to aggregate households into livelihood groups. Setting: Dhaka slums, Bangladesh. Su…
Identification of groups who report similar patterns of diet among a representative national sample of British adults aged 65 years of age or more

Design: National representative dietary survey, using 4-day weighed dietary records of men and women aged over 65 years old and living in private households in Great Britain in 1994–1995.

Dietary patterns among a national random sample of British adults
STUDY OBJECTIVES: To identify groups within the UK male and female population who report similar patterns of diet. DESIGN: National representative dietary survey, using seven day weighed dietary records, of men and women aged 16-64 years living in private households in Great Britain in 1986-7. Cluster analysis was used to aggregate participants into diet groups. SETTING: Great Britain. PARTICIPANTS: 1087 men and 1110 women. RESULTS: 93% of men an…
Fat intake
STUDY OBJECTIVE--To examine (a) changes in the shape of the distribution of dietary fat intake as the mean dietary fat intake of the population shifts and (b) implications for setting national dietary goals. DESIGN--Data on the percentage of energy from total fat, saturates, monounsaturates, polyunsaturates, and the P:S ratio were analysed for two dietary intervention trials and six cross sectional dietary surveys. The nutrient distributions from…
The impact of adult ill-health on household income and nutrition in Khulna, Bangladesh
This documents the large number of labour days lost by principal income earners in a low-income settlement (bustee) in Khulna, owing to illness or accidents. It also shows how the poorest households lost most work days, most income and much the highest proportion of monthly income and how this affected the nutritional status of different family members
When Breadwinners fall III
This article presents preliminary findings from a study of urban slum households in Khulna, Bangladesh. Chronic incapacitating ill?health among principal household earners, almost all males, was found to have serious effects on households’ economic viability. Affected households with assets disposed of most of them to pay for medical treatment, but in all households the earnings lost through sickness exceeded the costs of treatment. These process…
