简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of a newly developed FFQ specified for northern Chinese CHD and their high risk patients (CHD-FFQ). The psychometric properties include test-retest reliability, content validity, convergent validity, discriminant validity, concurrent validity and predictive validity. Particularly, this study will measure the physiological indicators, including plasma lipid profile (i.e. TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C), BG, BP and BMI twice at baseline and the end. The level of these physiological indicators will be compared with the fat intake measured by the CHD-FFQ, i.e. the baseline intake to test its convergent validity. It is also expected to predict the diet-related progression of CHD risks among high-risk individuals, i.e. patients with two or more CHD risk factors as following: raised fasting blood glucose (BG) level, increased blood pressure (BP), increased triglycerides (TG), decreased HDL-Cholesterol (HDL-C), increased LDL-Cholesterol (LDL-C), smoking and central obesity (International Diabetes Federation, 2015). In addition, this study will provide the FFQ's concurrent validity in assessing the intake of energy and nutrients against the CDC-FFQ. Moreover, whether the FFQ could detect the known differences in energy intake between men and women will be established for its discriminant validity.

结局指标
主要结局
Intake of Food
时间窗: October-November
As a criterion, the FFQ developed by Chinese CDC will be applied to the participants to collect their dietary intake of food.
Cardiac-related physiological blood parameters
时间窗: January- February, October- November
In the beginning and the end of the study, the medical records of the participants will be refered to get the blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the past three months, in the department and the community centers.
Height
时间窗: January-February, April- May, July- August, October- November
Participant's height will be measured to the nearest 0.5 cm, with a right-angle triangle resting on the scalp and against the wall, having the back square against the wall tape and eyes looking straight ahead. The height will be measured without wearing shoes.
BMI
时间窗: January-February, April- May, July- August, October- November
weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m\^2
Weight
时间窗: January-February, April- May, July- August, October- November
A calibrated scale with the resolution of 0.1 kg will be used to measure the weight of the participants, who will be asked to wear light clothes during measurement. The weight will be measured without shoes.
Waist circumstance
时间窗: January-February, April- May, July- August, October- November
Waist circumstance will be taken at the midpoint between the top of the iliac crest and the lower margin of the palpable rib
Blood pressure
时间窗: January-February, April- May, July- August, October- November
To take the blood pressure, the participant will be asked to be seated for at least 15 minutes with his/her legs uncrossed (WHO, 2008). Two BP measurements will be taken and between the two readings, the participant will have three minutes' rest.
次要结局

- General clinical information(January-February)
- Clinical Information(October- November)
- Physical activity level(January-February, April- May, July- August, October- November)
