J15 Validation Of 24 H Dietary Recalls To Assess Dietary Intake For Patients With Huntington's Disease. Spanish Multicenter Study Of The European Group For Huntington's Disease
Background Weighed dietary records are considered as the gold standard in nutrition assessment, but 24 h dietary recalls (24-h) and 3 days dietary record (3-d) are usually used. The 24-h is less laborious and cheaper but is necessary to have an experienced interviewer; while the 3-d are completed by the same participant/caregiver, it is more reliable but more expensive, time consuming is high, require previous training and have more dropouts.
