AbstractObjectiveTo compare estimates from one day with usual intake estimates to evaluate how the adjustment for within-person variability affected nutrient intake and adequacy in Mexican children.DesignIn order to obtain usual nutrient intakes, the National Cancer Institute’s method was used to correct the first 24 h dietary recall collected in the entire sample (n 2045) with a second 24 h recall collected in a sub-sample (n 178). We computed estimates of one-day and usual intakes of total energy, fat, Fe, Zn and Na.Setting2012 Mexican National Health and Nutrition Survey.SubjectsA total of 2045 children were included: 0–5·9 months old (n 182), 6–11·9 months old (n 228), 12–23·9 months old (n 537) and 24–47·9 months old (n 1098). From these, 178 provided an additional dietary recall.ResultsAlthough we found small or no differences in energy intake (kJ/d and kcal/d) between one-day v. usual intake means, the prevalence of inadequate and excessive energy intake decreased somewhat when using measures of usual intake relative to one day. Mean fat intake (g/d) was not different between one-day and usual intake among children >6 months old, but the prevalence of inadequate and excessive fat intake was overestimated among toddlers and pre-schoolers when using one-day intake (P<0·05). Compared with usual intake, estimates from one day yielded overestimated prevalences of inadequate micronutrient intakes but underestimated prevalences of excessive intakes among children aged >6 months.ConclusionsThere was overall low variability in energy and fat intakes but higher for micronutrients. Because the usual intake distributions are narrower, the prevalence of inadequate/excessive intakes may be biased when estimating nutrient adequacy if one day of data is used.

(1) Background: Considering the limited amount of available data on the diet quality of children, adolescents, and young adults with an intellectual disability (ID) in Poland, as well as the higher incidence of nutritional disorders among people with ID in comparison to the general population, a study was conducted to assess the quality of diet in community-dwelling young individuals with ID. (2) Methods: A multiple-case study was carried out to obtain data on anthropometric parameters and food records over a three-day observation period for 18 subjects with ID. The nutritional value of the products and dishes consumed by the subjects was calculated using the commercial computer program Kcalmar.pro (Hermax, Poland), which contains the Polish database of the nutritional value of food products and dishes. The results presented here are those of a pilot study of a wider research project. (3) Results: The study group consisted of seven women (38.9%) and 11 men (61.1%) with an average age of 12.94 years (range 4.00–22.00) and an average BMI of 25.2 (range 14.5–35.4). The obtained results confirmed the suboptimal pattern of nutrition in children and adolescents with ID. Regarding energy intake and dietary macronutrients, only in 27.8% of cases, energy intake exceeded the Estimated Energy Requirement corresponding to age, sex, body weight, and height. Most of the respondents were characterized by correct intake of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, and 83.3% showed excessive intake of saturated fatty acids. Excessive intake of vitamins B1, B2, and B6 was observed in all subjects, and that of vitamins B3 (niacin), B12, A, and C in the vast majority of subjects, while deficiency of vitamin D was observed in all individuals and folic acid in 22.2% of individuals. Excessive intake of minerals, such as sodium, phosphorus, and magnesium was noted among most of the respondents, while the intake of calcium and iodine was found to be insufficient. Compared to people with less severe ID (grades 1 and 2), people with grade 3 ID showed significantly lower intake/reference fulfillment of dietary components such as vitamin B6, potassium, phosphorus, iron, copper, iodine, magnesium, and zinc. No significant differences were noted in the nutritional reference fulfillment for various nutrients among the groups distinguished by sex, nutritional status, or the cause of ID. (4) Conclusion: Health supervision guidelines proposed for persons with ID should take into account the dietary practices of the families caring for them, with an emphasis on the prevention and correction of irregularities that may reduce the effectiveness of rehabilitation and deteriorate the health of the affected people. Caregivers/parents of each person with ID who took part in the study were given individualized dietary advice aimed at correcting the dietary abnormalities.

Abstract Objectives Recognition is growing that sex impacts outcomes in kidney disease. Women tend to have slower kidney function decline and better controlled risk factors pre-dialysis but the same mortality rates as men once dialysis starts. In the general population, women tend to have higher diet quality scores. Little is known about how sex differences impact diet quality and how this may explain known sex differences in this population. Methods Diet History Questionnaire-3 (DHQ3) was administered to adults attending the Grey Nuns Hospital in Edmonton Alberta pre-dialysis (CKD; n = 46) or Hemodialysis (HD; n = 65) clinics. Healthy Eating Index (HEI) was used to assess diet quality. Nutrient intake was assessed per kg of body weight and adjusted for energy intake (i.e., per 1000kcal). Outcomes were assessed with subjects divided into sex category and clinic (CKD vs HD). Two tailed t-tests were used to test for sex differences in parametric variables. HEI scores were compared to age-matched general population values and sorted into below or above the comparator. Chi-square test were used to test for statistical significance in categorical variables. Results 110 participants were included, 51 females and 60 males. There was no sex difference in mean HEI between females (61.2 ± 9.7) and males (59.9 ± 8.8; p = 0.464). 57% of females and 60% of males had HEI scores below mean age-matched HEI scores for the general population and no sex differences were observed. Pre-dialysis females had higher whole fruit composite scores vs pre-dialysis males (females 4.7 ± 0.7; males 3.8 ± 1.6, p = 0.015). Males consumed more total and mg/kg body weight protein, potassium, phosphorus and sodium than females (all p &lt; 0.05); however, when intakes were adjusted for energy intake, there was no difference. Conclusions In this cohort of patients with CKD there were no observed differences in diet quality score between males and females. The majority of CKD patients had lower diet quality scores than the general population which might explain, to some extent, the few sex differences observed in this population. However, the higher whole fruit composite scores in pre-dialysis women may to some degree explain sex differences observed in pre-dialysis kidney disease. Further studies exploring dietary intake and sex differences in this population appear warranted. Funding Sources None.

The popularity of yogurt has increased among consumers due to its perceived health benefits. This study examined the cross-sectional association between yogurt consumption and nutrient intake/adequacy, dietary quality, and body weight in children and adults. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2001–2016 data (n = 65,799) were used and yogurt consumers were defined as those having any amount of yogurt during in-person 24-h diet recall. Usual intakes of nutrients were determined using the National Cancer Institute method and diet quality was calculated using the Healthy Eating Index-2015 (HEI-2015) scores after adjusting data for demographic and lifestyle factors. The data show that approximately 6.4% children and 5.5% adults consume yogurt, with a mean intake of yogurt of 150 ± 3 and 182 ± 3 g/d, respectively. Yogurt consumers had higher diet quality (10.3% and 15.2% higher HEI-2015 scores for children and adults, respectively); higher intakes of fiber, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamin D; and higher percent of the population meeting recommended intakes for calcium, magnesium, and potassium than non-consumers. Consumption of yogurt was also associated with lower body weight, body mass index (BMI), and 23% showed a lower risk of being overweight/obese among adults only. In conclusion, yogurt consumption was associated with higher nutrient intake, nutrient adequacy, and diet quality in both children and adults.

Abstract Background: Potatoes are nutrient rich white vegetables and are most widely consumed staple food. Research on potato consumption and impact on public health is limited and inconclusive. The objective of this study was to provide updated evaluation of the cross-sectional association between potato consumption and diet quality, nutrient intake and adequacy among adolescents. Methods: Two day 24-hour diet recall data from adolescents (n=16,633; age 9-18 years) participating in National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2001-2018 were used. Consumers were defined as those consuming any amount of potatoes (baked or boiled potatoes, mashed potatoes and potato mixtures, fried potatoes, and potato chips) on the days of dietary recall. Usual intakes of nutrients were determined using the National Cancer Institute method and diet quality was calculated using the Healthy Eating Index-2015 (HEI-2015) scores after adjusting the data for demographic factors. Results: Intake of potatoes did not change over the last 18 years among US adolescent. Consumers of baked or boiled potatoes, mashed potatoes and potato mixtures had 4.70% higher (P<0.05) HEI-2015 total score and the score gradually increased with increasing intake quartile. HEI-2015 total scores were also higher for consumers of baked or boiled potatoes, mashed potatoes and potato mixtures, and fried potatoes (+2.01%, P<0.05) and for consumers of baked or boiled potatoes, mashed potatoes and potato mixtures, fried potatoes, and potato chips (+1.57%, P<0.05) than non-consumers. Consumers of potatoes had higher (P<0.05) intake of energy and nutrients (dietary fiber, protein, copper, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, zinc, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin K and total choline); and higher (P<0.05) nutrient adequacy for protein, copper, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, thiamine, niacin, vitamin B6 and vitamin C, vitamin K than non-consumers. However, potato consumers also had a higher intake of sodium.Conclusion: The results show that potato consumption was associated with better diet quality, higher nutrient intake and improved nutrient adequacy. Potatoes are nutrient rich foods and encouraging their consumption may be an effective strategy for improving intakes and adequacy of key nutrients.Trial Registration: Not applicable, as this was a secondary analysis of publicly available data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

Abstract Background Current evidence supports the adoption of healthy diet and physical activity (PA) behaviors in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), given the positive effects of those behaviors on physical well-being. An improved understanding of the associations between diet and PA with PCOS is needed to ascertain whether tailored dietary and PA recommendations are needed for this population. Thus, we investigated the associations of diet and PA with PCOS and its isolated features. Methods Cross-sectional study. Of the 748 women who were included in this study from the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) Women’s Study, 40 were classified as having PCOS, 104 had isolated hyperandrogenism (HA) and 75 had isolated oligomenorrhea (OA). Dietary intake was measured using the CARDIA diet history questionnaire and diet quality was scored using the Alternative Healthy Eating Index 2010; a higher score indicated a better quality diet. Self-reported PA was measured using a validated interviewer-administered questionnaire. Polytomous logistic regression analyses examined the associations between diet and PA with PCOS, HA, and OA status (outcomes), adjusting for age, race, total energy intake, education, and/or body mass index. The threshold for statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results Mean age of the participants was 25.4 years (SD 3.6) and 46.8% of participants were Black women. There was little to no association of total energy intake, nutrients, diet quality, and PA with PCOS, HA or OA status. Conclusion Energy intake, nutrient composition, diet quality, and PA were not associated with PCOS, supporting recent PCOS guidelines of using national recommendations for the general population to encourage health-promoting behaviors among women with PCOS. However, longitudinal studies evaluating changes in diet and physical activity in relation to the development and/or the progression of PCOS are needed to establish a causal association.
