对 1820 名未经选择的个体（1099 名女性和 721 名年龄 >= 18 岁的男性）的样本进行了评估，这些个体在 2019 年完成了 Medi-Lite 评分的网络版本。对地中海饮食 (MD) 的遵守情况呈正态分布，在 0 到 18 的范围内，平均得分为 12.2 +/- 2.4。与男性相比，女性、老年人与年轻人、拥有大学学位的人与拥有小学或中学文凭的人相比，观察到的依从性分数显着更高（p < 0.001）。在多变量分析中，女性、高龄（> 45 岁）和高等教育水平与处于 Medi-Lite 分布最高四分位数的概率较高相关。总之，我们发现我们人口中的某些亚群体（男性、年轻人和受教育程度较低的人）需要改善饮食，以达到更高的 MD 依从性分数。
The adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MD) was assessed in a sample of 1820 non-selected individuals (1099 females and 721 males aged >= 18 years) who have completed the web version of the Medi-Lite score during the year 2019. Adherence to the MD was found to have a normal distribution and, on a scale from 0 to 18, the mean score was 12.2 +/- 2.4. Significantly (p < 0.001) higher adherence scores were observed in females compared to males, in elderly people compared to young people, and in individuals with a university degree compared to those with a primary or a secondary school diploma. At the multivariate analysis, female gender, advanced age (>45 years), and higher education level were associated with a higher probability of being in the highest quartile of the Medi-Lite distribution. In conclusion, we found that some sub-groups of our population (males, younger individuals, and those with lower levels of education) need to improve their diet for reaching higher adherence scores to the MD.
