| Abstract | In cohort studies, often only one baseline measurement of dietary intake is available. This may underestimate the strength of the association with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The main objective is to compare the strength of the association of a Mediterranean style diet with CVD using one baseline measurement of diet versus three repeated measurements over a 10-year period.We used dietary and lifestyle data of three rounds of the Doetinchem Cohort Study. At baseline, 7,769 persons aged 20–65 years were examined. Diet was assessed with a 178 item validated food-frequency questionnaire and operationalized with the Mediterranean Diet Score (MDS) ranging from 0 to 9. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CI). Analyses were adjusted for age, sex, and repeated measurements of smoking, sports, total energy intake, and educational level.Comparing an MDS of ≥5.5–9 to an MDS of 0–<3.5, baseline MDS was associated with a 23 % lower risk [HR 0.77 (95 % CI 0.53–1.11)] and the updated mean with a 35 % lower risk [HR 0.65 (0.43–0.97)] of a composite of fatal CVD, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and stroke (composite CVD). For fatal CVD, baseline MDS was associated with a 13 % lower risk [HR 0.87 (0.36–2.07)] and the updated mean with a 56 % lower risk [HR 0.44 (0.19–1.05)].The strength of the association between a Mediterranean style diet and CVD is likely underestimated because most studies so far used only one baseline measurement. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
