Chatterjee, Ayona. "Probabilistic risk assessment of dietary data." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2005. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/14388.

Abstract:

Until recently, deterministic methods have been used to estimate food risk. These methods give one risk estimate for the whole population, mostly ignore the variability in the consumption data and produce unrealistic results. Recently there has been an increase in the use of probabilistic models for food risk assessment. Some of these probabilistic models are purely based on empirical distributions and others on probability models in a frequentist or Bayesian framework. In this thesis we improve on existing Bayesian models for food consumption data collected on successive days, and propose pos

Abstract:

Background: Collecting information on food and dietary intake provides valuable insights into the associations between diet and health and helps to evaluate the impact of intervention programmes. Measuring dietary intake is challenging, particular when adolescents are the target group. Errors associated with the quantification of food portion size (FPS) are the most common errors to arise when assessing dietary intake. Aims: To improve the measurement of adolescents’ dietary intake by investigating certain variables related to adolescents’ FPSs, and developing and validating an online 24-hour

Abstract:

The identification of the chemical acrylamide (AA) in food was followed by intense research which led to the discovery that AA forms in starch-rich foodstuff when roasted, fried and baked, due to the reaction of the amino acid asparagine and reducing sugars. Animal studies have shown the carcinogenic effect of AA leading to tumours in multiple sites and in 1994 the IARC classified AA as a probable human carcinogen. After ingestion AA is metabolised to the reactive epoxide glycidamide (GA) that is able to react with bio-macromolecules such as DNA and haemoglobin (Hb). Three major DNA adducts of

Abstract:

Assessment of non-dietary, human exposure to pesticides is an integral part of pesticide authorisation at the EU level. In this thesis, models were used to predict exposure of vulnerable human sub-populations to pesticides and thus to assess risks to health. Two high-quality pesticide usage datasets previously collected by Fera Science Ltd. and for EFSA were analysed. Trends in pesticide usage and major drivers of exposure and thus risk were identified, including any implications for regulatory procedures over the period investigated.

Abstract:

Childhood (ages 2-9 years) and adolescence (ages 10-19 years) make up important periods of human life. Food preferences and dietary behaviors are developing during this time, and health status can impact noncommunicable disease (NCD) risk in adulthood. Many of the behaviors associated with developing NCD are modifiable and include dietary behaviors. Globally, children and adolescents are impacted by NCD, and obesity prevalence is growing among this population. One of the recommendations for combating obesity is to promote the consumption of healthy foods and beverages and the reduction of suga

Abstract:

The South Asian population is the largest minority ethnic . group in the UK. Their diet and food habits depend on their geographical origin, but they can change after migration due to acculturation. It has been observed that South Asians have a higher risk of diet related diseases than white Caucasians. Another observation is that diet during childhood affects health outcomes in adulthood. The main aim of this thesis is to develop and validate dietary assessment methods adapted to South Asian children aged 4-11 years living in the UK and to test the hypothesis that their diets and food habits

Obesity is one of the most important health problems in the UK and its prevalence is increasing. It is often neglected, despite it being associated with a range of serious diseases such as coronary heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, gall stones, peptic ulcer, gout and certain cancers. Most of these are reversed by weight loss but there are concerns that many treatments available to the obese are ineffective. The obese and overweight are the largest treatment group seen by dietetic departments and utilise a large proportion of clinic time. It is important that the best, most appropriate tre

This thesis investigated novel approaches to the delivery of lifestyle education for people with diabetes. The principles of dietary advice for diabetes recommend a high carbohydrate intake, yet carbohydrate foods raise blood glucose levels significantly. Study 1 was designed as a randomised controlled trial to evaluate the effect of a low carbohydrate (LC) and low fat (LF) diet on glycaemic control and body weight in 26 subjects. Weight loss was greater in the LC group (-6.9kg v -2.1kg, p=0.003). Glycaemic control improved in both groups with a reduction in Alc in both LC and LF groups (-0.3%

NNS are difficult to study due to the inability to accurately measure the amounts individuals consume, as well as limitations in study design and methods, including reliance on observational study designs, the use of diet soda as a proxy of total NNS intake, and the grouping of NNS into a single category rather than studying NNS as individual products.
