Comparison of an Australian food-frequency questionnaire with diet records
Objectives: To compare a widely used Australian food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) with diet records and consider the results in relation to its use in nutrition surveillance. Design: Inter-method reliability study. Setting: A randomised trial in subjects with past asbestos exposure. Subjects: Seventy-two adults living in Western Australia. Methods: A semi-quantitative FFQ developed by the Commonwealth Scientific Industrial Research Organisation …
Agreement between a brief food frequency questionnaire and diet records using two statistical methods
Objective To compare intra- and inter-method reliability of a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) designed specifically to measure beta carotene (BC) and retinol intake, using two methods – the limits of agreement (LOA) and the correlation coefficient. Design A cross-sectional study of dietary intake. Setting A randomized trial of vitamin A supplements in 2769 subjects with past asbestos exposure. Subjects Data from 57 men and 26…
Lung function in fire fighters, I
From a cohort of 1,768 Boston fire fighters studied initially in 1970, pulmonary function measurements were repeated on 1, 146 active subjects in 1974. The mean time between examinations was 3.4 years. The data on 1,430 subjects after one year of follow-up had indicated excessive decrements in levels of forced vital capacity and one-second forced expiratory bolume which were related to the frequency of fire exposure. The annual decline over three…
Lung function in fire fighters, II
In a study of the chronic effects of fire fighting on lung function, 1,768 employees from the Boston Fire Department were examined in 1970. From this cohort, 109 firefighters who retired in the period 1970 to 1975 have been restudied with questionnaire and ventilatory function tests. The observed vulues for pulmonary function when expressed as a per cent of predicted are consistently slightly below 100 per cent. The expected effect of cigarett sm…
