Multiple regression model with nutrients as the dependent variables. Factors associated with difference in (energy adjusted) daily grams of nutrient intakes from the FFQ (first administration) and 7-day food diary: Regression models were multivariable, with each factor adjusted for all others (+ p < 0.05; ++ p < 0.001). 1 Continuous variable. 2 Reference category: Men. 3 Reference category: Primary or below. 4 Reference category: <1000 Rupees/month.
