claimThe study assessed three validated metrics of diet quality: the Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI), the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH), and the Mediterranean Diet Score (MED).
claimThe Alternate Healthy Eating Index (AHEI), Mediterranean Diet Score (MED), and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet scores may be inadequately correlated with nutrients of concern, particularly among children and in low- and middle-income countries.
claimThe Alternate Healthy Eating Index (AHEI), Mediterranean Diet Score (MED), and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) are considered appropriate metrics for assessing dietary quality across populations in the absence of validated metrics for the double burden of malnutrition.
procedureThe Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) score is calculated based on eight components scored from 1 to 5 using sex-specific quintiles, resulting in a final score ranging from 8 to 40.
procedureFor the calculation of AHEI, DASH, and MED scores, consumption levels of dietary factors in each stratum were standardized to 2,000 kcal per day to ensure consistency based on usual adult intakes.
claimIn the AHEI, DASH, and MED dietary pattern scores, higher scores represent healthier diets because they are assigned for higher intakes of healthier foods or nutrients and lower intakes of unhealthier foods or nutrients.
referenceThe study 'Global dietary quality in 185 countries from 1990 to 2018' compared three validated dietary patterns: the Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI), the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet, and the Mediterranean Diet Score (MED17).
