In preparing an analytic file for another project, we discovered errors in reporting values related to intake of tree nuts assessed by food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and 24-hour dietary recalls (24HDR). Therefore the following amendments are required:

In the second paragraph of the Results section on page 1992

Instead of:

These included such foods as avocado (blacks), tree nuts (blacks), unprocessed and processed meat…

It should read:

These included such foods as avocado (blacks), unprocessed and processed meat…

In the third paragraph of the Results section on page 1992

Instead of:

Food groups with bias factors <−0·70 (seven in whites and thirteen in blacks) included such foods as onions, peanuts, tree nuts, white bread and drinking water.

It should read:

Food groups with bias factors <−0·70 (six in whites and twelve in blacks) included such foods as onions, peanuts, white bread and drinking water.

In the fourth paragraph of the Discussion section on page 1994

Instead of:

Avocado, tree nuts, fish and coffee were also among the foods that had high proportions of EA (>60%)…

It should read:

Avocado, fish and coffee were also among the foods that had high proportions of EA (>60%)…

Revised values for Tree nuts are shown below for Table 1 on page 1991, Table 2 on page 1993 and Table 3 on page 1995.

Table 1 Food and food group intakes from the FFQ and 24HDR by race in Adventist Health Study-2 calibration study participants (2003–2008)

24HDR, 24 h dietary recalls.

Table 2 Agreement between the categorization of food intake estimated from the FFQ and 24HDR by race in Adventist Health Study-2 calibration study participants (2003–2008)

24HDR, 24 h dietary recalls; GM, gross misclassification.
