It features an overview of research strategies in nutritional epidemiology - still a relatively new discipline that combines the vast knowledge compiled by nutritionists during this century with the methodologies developed by epidemiologists to study the determinants of diseases with multiple etiologies and long latent periods. A major section is devoted to the methods of dietary assessment using data on food intake, biochemical indicators of diet, and measures of body composition and size. The reproducibility and validity of each approach and the implications of measurement error are considered in detail.  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.  aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on Nov. 13, 2012). 0aNutritionally induced diseasesxEpidemiology. 0aDiet in diseasexResearchxMethodology. 0aNutrition surveysxMethodology. 0aNutritionxResearchxMethodology.08iPrint versionz9780199754038 0aMonographs in epidemiology and biostatistics ;vv. 40.403Oxford scholarship onlineuhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199754038.001.0001  c37698d37698
