Kay-Tee Khaw,Nicholas J. Wareham,Robert Luben,Sheila Bingham,Suzy Oakes,Ailsa A Welch,Nicholas E. Day +6 more
TL;DR: Glycated haemoglobin concentration seems to explain most of the excess mortality risk of diabetes in men and to be a continuous risk factor through the whole population distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of dietary assessment methods in nutritional epidemiology: weighed records v . 24 h recalls, food-frequency questionnaires and estimated-diet records
Sheila Bingham,Caroline Gill,Ailsa A Welch,K. Day,Aedin Cassidy,Kay-Tee Khaw,M. J. Sneyd,Timothy J. Key,L. Roe,Nicholas E. Day +9 more
TL;DR: Comparisons between the average of the 16 d weighed records and the first presentation of each method indicated that food-frequency questionnaires were not appreciably better at placing individuals in the distribution of habitual diet than 24 h recalls, due partly to inaccuracies in the estimation of frequency of food consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined Impact of Health Behaviours and Mortality in Men and Women: The EPIC-Norfolk Prospective Population Study
TL;DR: The relationships were consistent in subgroups stratified by sex, age, body mass index, and social class, and after excluding deaths within 2 y, and the trends were strongest for cardiovascular causes.
