Objective: The aims of the current report are to present the demographic characteristics, clinical characteristics/biochemical indices and lifestyle habits of the population and to explore the potential association of exclusive olive oil consumption, in relation to lifestyle factors, with coronary artery disease risk. Design: Demographic, lifestyle, dietary and biochemical variables were recorded. Logistic regression analysis was performed in order to estimate the relative risks of developing coronary artery disease.

“…However, no differences in fat intake were observed comparing intakes in MDC and the analogous Danish Diet, cancer and health cohort. 28 The lack of significant association between high physical activity and lower cardiovascular mortality among A-allele carriers is not easily explained. A-allele carriers were characterized by several indicators of impaired cardiovascular health, including higher blood pressure and insulin resistance, which were mainly because of the higher BMI in this group.…”

Objective: We wanted to explore if FTO genotype interacts with fat intake, or leisure-time physical activity, on fat mass, lean mass and mortality. Subjects and methods: Among 22 799 individuals (44-74 years) in the population-based Malmö diet and cancer cohort that were genotyped for rs9939609 in FTO and had information on dietary intake (from a modified diet history method) and no history of diabetes, cancer or cardiovascular disease, 2255 deaths (including 1100 cancer and 674 cardiovascular deaths) occurred during 12.0 years of follow-up. Leisure-time physical activity was determined from a list of 17 different physical activities in a questionnaire. Body composition was measured using bioelectric impedance method. Results: FTO genotype associated strongly with both fat mass and lean mass (P trend o1 Â 10 À16 for both) but we found only significant interactions with fat intake, or physical activity, on fat mass (P interaction ¼ 0.01 and 0.004). No significant interaction between FTO genotype and fat intake (P interaction ¼ 0.72), or leisure-time physical activity (P interaction ¼ 0.07), on total mortality were observed. However, we observed a significant interaction between leisure-time physical activity and FTO genotype on cardiovascular mortality (P interaction ¼ 0.03). The highest vs lowest quintile of physical activity was associated with 46% (95% confidence interval, 17-64%) reduced cardiovascular mortality among TT-carriers (P trend ¼ 0.004), and 11% reduced cardiovascular mortality among A-allele carriers (P trend ¼ 0.68). Conclusion: Our results indicate that FTO genotype associates with both fat mass and lean mass, but the level of fat intake and physical activity only modify the association with fat mass. In addition, FTO genotype may modify the association between physical activity and cardiovascular mortality.

“…The highest contributions from the food group fats and oils were observed in the Greek and Spanish cohorts and in Potsdam, Germany. The type of fat differed between these Mediterranean countries and Potsdam, as has been described in more detail by Linseisen et al (2009).…”

“…A detailed comparison of our results and those of the European Nutrition and Health Report would be inappropriate because of differences in dietary assessment methods and populations. Further details regarding energy intake from fat, including various types of fatty acids, carbohydrates, protein and alcohol are described elsewhere in this Supplement (Cust et al, 2009;Halkjaer et al, 2009;Linseisen et al, 2009;Sieri et al, 2009). These papers also present results on absolute intakes of macronutrients, their determinants and food sources.…”

Objectives: To describe energy intake and its macronutrient and food sources among 27 regions in 10 countries participating in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study. Methods: Between 1995 and 2000, 36 034 subjects aged 35-74 years were administered a standardized 24-h dietary recall. Intakes of macronutrients (g/day) and energy (kcal/day) were estimated using standardized national nutrient databases. Mean Correspondence: Dr MC Ocké, National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, PO Box 1, 3720 BA, Bilthoven, The Netherlands. E-mail: marga.ocke@rivm.nl Guarantor: MC Ocké. Contributors: MO carried out statistical analysis, prepared tables and figures and wrote the paper, taking into account comments from all co-authors. NS was the overall coordinator of this project and of the EPIC nutritional databases (ENDB) project. MO, NS, NL, SG, SB, PF, SS, VB, JL and EW were members of the writing group and gave input on statistical analysis, drafting of the paper and interpretation of results. The other co-authors were local EPIC collaborators involved in the collection of data, and in documenting, compiling and evaluating the subset of their national nutrient databases used in the ENDB. ER is the overall coordinator of the EPIC study. All co-authors provided comments and suggestions on the paper and approved the final version. intakes were weighted by season and day of the week and were adjusted for age, height and weight, after stratification by gender. Extreme low-and high-energy reporters were identified using Goldberg's cutoff points (ratio of energy intake and estimated basal metabolic rate o0.88 or 42.72), and their effects on macronutrient and energy intakes were studied. Results: Low-energy reporting was more prevalent in women than in men. The exclusion of extreme-energy reporters substantially lowered the EPIC-wide range in mean energy intake from 2196-2877 to 2309-2866 kcal among men. For women, these ranges were 1659-2070 and 1873-2108 kcal. There was no north-south gradient in energy intake or in the prevalence of low-energy reporting. In most centres, cereals and cereal products were the largest contributors to energy intake. The food groups meat, dairy products and fats and oils were also important energy sources. In many centres, the highest mean energy intakes were observed on Saturdays. Conclusions: These data highlight and quantify the variations and similarities in energy intake and sources of energy intake among 10 European countries. The prevalence of low-energy reporting indicates that the study of energy intake is hampered by the problem of underreporting.

Dietary fat intake in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition: results from the 24-h dietary recalls

Abstract: Objectives: This paper describes the dietary intake of total fat, saturated (SFA), monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and cholesterol of participants in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) in 27 centres across 10 countries.
