a Percentage mean difference were individually calculated by using the equation (BDHD-FFQ–3DDR)/3DDR × 100. Interpretation criteria: good 0–10.9%; acceptable 11.0–20.0%; poor >20.0% [51]. ᵇ Paired sample t-test of BDHD-FFQ with 3DDR, p-value < 0.05. Interpretation criteria: good: p-value > 0.05; poor: p-value ≤0.05 [52]. Abbreviations: BDHD-FFQ, Bangladeshi Hemodialysis-Food Frequency Questionnaire; 3DDR, 3-day diet recall; Kcal/day = kilocalorie per day; g/day = gram per day; mg/day = milligram per day.
