The National Death Index (NDI) is a centralized database of death record information on file in state vital statistics offices. Working with these state offices, the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) established the NDI as a resource to aid epidemiologists and other health and medical investigators with their mortality ascertainment activities. The National Death Index Working Group brings together federal and non-federal demographic experts to improve the quality, comprehensiveness, and utility of the National Death Index.

The generation of original analytical data for foods at the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) is conducted through the National Food and Nutrient Analysis Program (NFNAP) in collaboration with multiple groups including the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and other federal agencies. NFNAP includes statistically based sampling plans for Key Foods and analysis of foods by qualified laboratories. The five Specific Aims of the NFNAP are to: (1) establish a monitoring program for Key Foods and critical nutrients. Key Foods are frequently consumed foods and ingredients, which collectively contributed more than 75 percent of the intake of any specific nutrient for the US population; (2) conduct comprehensive analyses of selected Key Foods; (3) develop databases for high priority foods consumed by US ethnic subpopulations; (4) develop databases for new bioactive components; and (5) develop a validated database for ingredients in dietary supplements. Analytical data generated through the NFNAP are compiled and released in annual updates of the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference (SR). They are also used to calculate estimates for related foods not analyzed, to assess nutrient variability, and to evaluate methods for estimating the nutrient content of multi-ingredient foods. These values will be used by the Food Surveys Research Group (FSRG), Agricultural Research Service (ARS) to develop the Food and Nutrient Dataset for Dietary Surveys used in the “What We Eat in America” (WWEIA) component of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

OD/DPCPSI/ODS
|
A program of studies designed to assess the health and nutritional status of adults and children in the United States. This nationally representative survey is unique in that it combines interviews and physical examinations. The Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) uses this survey mechanism to collect data on dietary supplement use and data on biomarkers of nutritional status.

The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is a program of studies designed to assess the health and nutritional status of adults and children in the United States. The survey is unique in that it combines interviews and physical examinations. The interest group assesses the use of NHANES data and discusses ideas for additions and changes to NHANES to enhance the usefulness of this major database.

The National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) - started in 1957 - is a continuous, nationwide in-person survey of approximately 35,000 households, or about 87,500 persons, in the civilian non-institutionalized population. The NHIS oversamples African-American and Hispanic respondents. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) periodically sponsors a Cancer Control Supplement (CCS) which is administered to a randomly selected sample of 39,000 adults.
