The instrument was validated against a modified diet history instrument (DISHES) [ 48].
However, the FFQ was validated by comparison with a modified dietary history.
Dietary and other background data were obtained through a modified diet history method and an extensive questionnaire.
In Malmö (Sweden), a modified diet history method was used, combining information from a 7-day diet record, a semiquantitative questionnaire and a 1-h dietary interview.
A cohort of 24,799 non-diabetic individuals from the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS), with dietary data obtained by a modified diet history method, were followed up for 12 years, with 1,649 recordings of incident type 2 diabetes made.
Dietary data was obtained through a modified diet history consisting of (a) a 168-item dietary questionnaire for assessment of the consumption frequencies and portion sizes of regularly eaten foods (i.e. sandwiches, cakes and cookies, fruit, breakfast cereals, milk and yoghurt, coffee, tea, candy, snacks etc).
During the DCCT (1983 1993), diet was assessed using a modified Burke-type diet history at the baseline, 2-year, 5-year, and study end points.
We defined dietary n-3 LC-PUFAs as the sum of the average intake of EPA and DHA in g/day obtained from a modified Burke-type diet history at baseline (5), which provided data on the nutrient composition of a diet instead of food quantities.
Once the models are derived they can be used to predict lifetimes to failure for a load time history using a modified Miner's damage summation rule and rainflow analysis.
Gao et al. (2007) applied a modified SPSA method for automatic history matching.
The controls were screened for lifetime absence of any psychiatric disorder using a modified version of the Past History Schedule.
