| Procedures | |
| Data collection method | Data collection was carried out in person by dieteticians in food aid structures. Clinical and biological tests were introduced and conducted at second stage in a National Health Insurance examination centre (Marseilles, Dijon, Paris and Seine-Saint-Denis) or in a municipal health centre (Hauts-de-Seine and Val-de-Marne). Collections were carried out during the 2004-2005 and 2011-2012 winter campaigns from food aid structures. |
| Classifications used | Sociodemographic: short questionnaires and INSEE classification. Nutritional status, cardiovascular markers: international definitions. |
| Quality procedure(s) used | Internal unit procedures. |
