All factor loadings were higher than 0.4, indicating that they were statistically significant and higher than the recommended level [ 20].
Data from the present cross-sectional study show that CHO constitutes 64.1% of total energy from diet in the T2DM group, which is higher than the recommended level.
The corrected item-total correlations for the 12 items were all higher than the minimum recommended level of 0.2 [24].
Cereals/roots supply dropped steadily and had been not much higher than the minimal recommended level.
Cronbach's alphas for the domains are shown in the first column, and all were higher than the usually recommended level of 0.70 [ 23].
In these patients, it appears that a MAP higher than the universally recommended level of 65 mmHg could be necessary to avoid worsening of renal function.
A conservative estimate indicated that the average salt intake at baseline was 7.0 g/day for children aged 10, which is 40% higher than the WHO recommended level of 5 g/day for adults.
