What is Enhancing data on nutrient composition of foods eaten by participants in the INTERMAP study in China, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States about?

The International Study of Macronutrients and Blood Pressure (INTERMAP) is a four-country study investigating relationships between individual dietary intakes and blood pressure. Dietary intake patterns of individuals were estimated for macronutrients (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, alcohol) and their components (amino acids, fatty acids, starch), as well as minerals, vitamins, caffeine, and dietary fiber. The dietary assessment phase of the study involved collection of four 24-h recalls and two 24-h urine specimens from each of 4680 adults, ages 40-59, at 16 centers located in the People's Republic of China, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States. For each country, an available database of nutrient composition of locally consumed foods was updated for use in the analysis of dietary data collected within the country. The four original databases differed in number and types of foods and nutrients included, analytic methods used to derive nutrients, and percentage of missing nutrient values. The Nutrition Coordinating Center at the University of Minnesota updated the original databases in several ways to overcome the foregoing limitations and increase comparability in the
