TI  - Validation of dietary applications of Household Consumption and Expenditures 
      Surveys (HCES) against a 24-hour recall method in Uganda.
PG  - S190-8
AB  - BACKGROUND: The benefits of food fortification depend on the proportion of the 
      population that uses the fortified food (coverage), the amount of the food being 
      consumed, and the additional content of micronutrients in the food. Coverage and 
      amounts consumed can be determined by 24-hour recall or Food Frequency 
      Questionnaires (FFQs). However, these methods are rarely applied. Secondary 
      analysis of data from Household Consumption and Expenditures Surveys (HCES) can 
      be used for these purposes; however, such data analysis has not been validated. 
      OBJECTIVE: To compare the results of HCES and 24-hour recall for estimating the 
      consumption profile of potential fortification vehicles in Uganda. METHODS: Food 
      intake estimates for 24- to 59-month-old children and 15- to 49-year-old women 
      derived from a one-day 24-hour recall carried out in Uganda (Kampala, North, and 
      Southwest) were compared with data from two HCES (2006, nationwide, and 2008, 
      coupled with the 24-hour recall). The analyzed foods were vegetable oil, sugar, 
      wheat flour, maize flour, and rice. RESULTS: Food consumption estimates 
      calculated from HCES may be less accurate than estimates derived by 24-hour 
      recall. Nevertheless, the HCES results are sensitive enough to differentiate 
      consumption patterns among population strata. In Uganda, HCES predicted 
      proportion of the population that consumes the foods, and approximated intakes of 
      main food vehicles by the "observed" consumers (those who reported using the 
      foods), although estimates for the latter were lower for wheat flour and rice. 
      CONCLUSIONS: HCES data offer the basic information needed to provide a rationale 
      for, and help design, food fortification programs. Individual intake surveys are 
      still needed, however, to assess intrahousehold use of foods.
