Criterion-related validity of the last 7-day, short form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire in Swedish adults
Objective To examine the validity of the short, last 7-day, self-administered form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Design All subjects wore an accelerometer for seven consecutive days and completed the IPAQ questionnaire on the eighth day. Criterion validity was assessed by linear regression analysis and by modified Bland–Altman analysis. Specificity and sensitivity were calculated for classifying respondents accordin…
Evaluating the potential health gain of the World Health Organization's recommendation concerning vegetable and fruit consumption
Objective: The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends a daily intake of at least 400?g of vegetables and fruit. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the public health benefit of meeting this WHO recommendation by applying a statistical method that combines estimated intake distributions and simulated intake changes. Design and setting: The benefit of an increased consumption of vegetables and fruit was quantified by the preventable proportio…
Under-reporting in dietary surveys – implications for development of food-based dietary guidelines
Objective: To illustrate issues related to under-reporting in dietary surveys relevant for development of food-based dietary guidelines Setting: Food and nutrient intakes in two national dietary surveys are analysed in relation to under-reporting using the concept of cut-off values for the ratio between energy intake and basal metabolic rate as well as biochemical markers of nutritional status. Results: Subjects with an implausibly low EI/BMR rat…
Predicting percentage of individuals consuming foods from percentage of households purchasing foods to improve the use of household budget surveys in estimating food chemical intakes
Objective: To examine the hypothesis that there is sufficient agreement between percentage of households purchasing selected foods using household budget surveys and percentage of individuals consuming these foods as determined in individual-based surveys to allow the former to act as a surrogate for the latter when estimating food chemical intakes using household budget data. Design: Database study. Setting: Databases from Sweden, The Netherland…
