“…From the sourced articles, fifty-one pan-European studies in total were identified: thirty-five named projects and sixteen smaller projects ( 48 , 54 , 56 , 65 , 69 , 72 , 82 , 83 , 88 , 93 , 94 , 107 , 109 , 113 , 114 , 116 ) . Most studies assessed dietary intake of F&V among adults ( 18 , 41 , 44 , 46 , 48 , 50 , 51 , 54 – 57 , 59 , 60 , 64 – 66 , 68 , 69 , 71 , 72 , 75 – 79 , 81 – 84 , 86 , 88 , 92 – 94 , 107 , 146 , 147 ) .

“…Several methods were used to assess dietary intake of F&V in the identified studies. The vast majority of the pan-European studies used FFQ (n 42) (27,29,30,36,41,48,50,52,(54)(55)(56)(58)(59)(60)(64)(65)(66)69,71,72,75,76,78,79,82,(84)(85)(86)88,93,104,109,110,(113)(114)(115)(116)120,139,146,150) . Since a common FFQ instrument was not used across all countries in the EPIC (European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition) study, only the EPIC-SOFT instrument is discussed in the current review.…”

Evidence suggests that health benefits are associated with consuming recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables (F&V), yet standardised assessment methods to measure F&V intake are lacking. The current review aims to identify methods to assess F&V intake among children and adults in pan-European studies and inform the development of the DEDIPAC (DEterminants of DIet and Physical Activity) toolbox of methods suitable for use in future European studies.\ud A literature search was conducted using three electronic databases and by hand-searching reference lists. English-language studies of any design which assessed F&V intake were included in the review.\ud Studies involving two or more European countries were included in the review.\ud Healthy, free-living children or adults.\ud The review identified fifty-one pan-European studies which assessed F&V intake. The FFQ was the most commonly used (n 42), followed by 24 h recall (n 11) and diet records/diet history (n 7). Differences existed between the identified methods; for example, the number of F&V items on the FFQ and whether potatoes/legumes were classified as vegetables. In total, eight validated instruments were identified which assessed F&V intake among adults, adolescents or children.\ud The current review indicates that an agreed classification of F&V is needed in order to standardise intake data more effectively between European countries. Validated methods used in pan-European populations encompassing a range of European regions were identified. These methods should be considered for use by future studies focused on evaluating intake of F&V

“…PM consultant Ragnar Rylander, a professor at Göteborg University, was selected to conduct a confounder study in Sweden,128 which was funded by CIAR129 after approval by its Board of Directors (comprised tobacco industry executives, including a representative of SM since 1994). The Swedish confounder study was eventually published in the European Journal of Public Health 130 without disclosing the tobacco industry's role in its sponsorship 131–135. SM also paid part of the expenses for two long-time industry consultants, Lee136–138 and LeVois,139–141 who Covington and Burling hired to attack the IARC study.…”

Local Nordic tobacco interests collaborated with multinational companies to maintain a united front and undermine tobacco control policies

Objective To analyse how local tobacco companies in the Nordic countries, individually and through National Manufacturers’ Associations, cooperated with British American Tobacco and Philip Morris in denying the health hazards of smoking and undermining tobacco control. Methods Analysis of tobacco control policies in the Nordic countries and tobacco industry documents. Results Nordic countries were early adopters of tobacco control policies. The multinational tobacco companies recognised this fact and mobilised to oppose these policies, in part because of fear that they would set unfavourable precedents. Since at least 1972, the Nordic tobacco companies were well informed about and willing to participate in the multinational companies activities to obscure the health dangers of smoking and secondhand smoke and to oppose tobacco control policies. Cooperation between multinational companies, Nordic national manufacturer associations and local companies ensured a united front on smoking and health issues in the Nordic area that was consistent with the positions that the multinational companies were taking. This cooperation delayed smoke-free laws and undermined other tobacco control measures. Conclusions Local tobacco companies worked with multinational companies to undermine tobacco control in distant and small Nordic markets because of concern that pioneering policies initiated in Nordic countries would spread to bigger market areas. Claims by the local Nordic companies that they were not actively involved with the multinationals are not supported by the facts. These results also demonstrate that the industry appreciates the global importance of both positive and negative public health precedents in tobacco control.

“…One tactic is to commission studies aimed at discrediting accepted findings: examples include studies that cast doubt on epidemiological findings, especially in relation to passive smoking, or which purport to identify other risk factors for ill health in active and passive smokers, such as a low intake of vegetables. 8 9 These studies are often open to criticism on methodological grounds: use of selective arguments and literature, inconsistency in the inclusion or omission of potentially biasing factors, playing with statistical inference rather than considering overall plausibility and weight of evidence, and drawing conclusions that are unwarranted by the evidence 10 – 12. Such concerns may not prevent these studies from being published in international journals, where the peer review process has failed to address their methodological weaknesses.…”
