Dietary adherence score
REGRESSION
A dietary adherence score was calculated based on the ModiMedDiet score as described by [We performed regression models to predict the changes in outcomes measures based on dietary adherence scores or performed correlation analysis if regression model was deemed inappropriate to explore the relationship between dietary adherence and changes in study outcome measures. Model fit for the regression analysis was determined by checking multicollinearity was checked with VIF being close to 1, residuals were normally and randomly distributed, and no autocorrelation was detected using Durbin Watson statistic of around 2, and influential observations were checked using Cook’s Distance.
