Retraction Note to: European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (2019) 73:714–723
The authors have retracted this article [1] after discovering a major error in the data analysis made when generating the grouped items used in the factor analysis generating the dietary patterns. Because the error is in the foundations of the analysis, it means that the dietary patterns identified were themselves erroneous and their associations with socio-demographic factors are also incorrect. A re-analysis showed up major differences in outcomes when compared with those in [1]. The authors have been given the opportunity to submit a new manuscript for peer review. All authors agree with this retraction.
