RESUMO
Objective@#To analyze the status of dietary sodium intake of Chinese adult residents in fifteen provinces in 2015.@*Methods@#Data were collected from 2015 China Nutrition Transition Cohort Study. This cohort study used a three consecutive 24-h retrospective method to record food intake and weighing method to record household condiment consumption. In this study, 14 847 residents aged 18 years and over with complete data from 15 provinces in 2015 were selected for the comparison of dietary sodium intake (median) with different characteristics.@*Results@#Among the 14 847 residents, 47.1% were males, and the rural and northern residents accounted for 60.1% and 37.7%, respectively. Median sodium intake was 3 960.0 mg/d among residents in 2015. The sodium intake of males (4 272.1 mg/d) was higher than that of females (3 716.6 mg/d). Across age subgroups, sodium intake was highest among residents aged 45-59 years (4 257.0 mg/d; 18-44 years old, 3 867.1 mg/d; ≥60 years old, 3 799.0 mg/d). Sodium intake was higher in rural area (4 042.9 mg/d) than in urban area (3 866.8 mg/d), higher in north (4 229.2 mg/d) than in south (3 806.8 mg/d) (all P values <0.05). 11.8% of residents with dietary sodium intake were below 2 000 mg/d. The main sources of dietary sodium were condiments (79.4%), regular cooking foods (11.9%) and processed foods (8.7%). Among the condiments, the salt and soy sauce accounted for 63.6% and 10.4%, respectively.@*Conclusion@#In 2015, Chinese adult residents had higher dietary sodium intake with gender and regional differences. Condiments were the main source of dietary sodium.
RESUMO
The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis has been widely used in the evaluation of screening validity in Epidemiology and in determining the optimal operating point. At present, theories about ROC curves and computation methods have been established mainly based on cross-sectional data. It is important to understand the characteristics and the progress of ROC application in order to explore more researches on optimal cut-off value, which could also give suggestions on non-communicable diseases (NCD) prevention and control. This study reviewed the application of ROC curve analysis and softwares in NCD and pointed out the future work.

Objective To identify the trends of vegetables and fruits consumption among Chinese adults aged 18 to 44 years old from 1991 to 2011.Methods Twenty four hour dietary recall data from China Health and Nutrition Survey (1991,1993,1997,2000,2004,2006,2009 and 2011) were used to identify the trends of vegetables and fruits consumption among Chinese between 18 and 44 years old.Results From 1991 to 2011,the proportion of daily consumption of vegetables rarely varied,while the vegetables intake declined significantly; and the proportion of daily consumption and intake of fruits kept increasing as follows.By 2011,the proportion of daily consumption and intake of vegetables and fruits among the respondents were 99.7％,48.0％,321.6 g/d,and 90.1 g/d respectively.A significant drop was found in the vegetables intake among the respondents against the vegetables intake as recommended by the Chinese dietary guidelines,up to 50.2％ in 2011; a significant rise was found in the fruits intake of the respondents against the fruits intake as recommended by the said guidelines,up to 17.4％ in 2011.Conclusion The average daily intake of vegetables and fruits of young and middle-aged residents (18-44 age group) in nine provinces in China was found lower than that recommended in the Chinese dietary guidelines;in view of the high proportion of people having less vegetables and fruits intake that those recommended by the Chinese dietary guidelines,further measures are expected to encourage their vegetables and fruits intake.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the association between dietary cholesterol intake and hypercholesterolemia among Chinese adults.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>In 2009, 4 244 adults aged 25-65 years old who participated in both 2004 and 2009 China Health and Nutrition Surveys, and with complete biochemical and dietary data were selected. Hypercholesterolemia were defined as with total cholesterol ≥ 6.22 mmol/L, according to 2007 Chinese Guidelines on Prevention and Treatment of Dyslipidemia in Adults. Non-conditional logistic regression was used to investigate association between dietary cholesterol intake and hypercholesterolemia.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The average total cholesterol was 4.9 mmol/L, with prevalence of hypercholesterolemia as 9.6%, in 2009. During 2004 to 2009, dietary cholesterol showed a dramatical increase, with lower intake groups the most. Males who consumed middle or lower dietary cholesterol in 2004 and high intake in 2009 had significantly higher risk of having hypercholesterolemia. However, similar findings did not appear in females.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The associations between dietary cholesterol intake and hypercholesterolemia were different among Chinese males and females. Dramatic increase of dietary cholesterol intake was related to higher risk of hypercholesterolemia in males.</p>
