Validation of the Brasil-Nutri software for 24-hour dietary recall using recovery biomarkers.
Article in Revista brasileira de epidemiologia = Brazilian journal of epidemiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo evaluate measurement errors in duplicate 24-hour dietary recalls, guided by the Brasil-Nutri software, using recovery biomarkers for energy, protein, sodium, and potassium in a subsample of participants from the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil).
methodsApparently healthy men and women with stable body weight were included in the study. Two non-consecutive 24-hour dietary recalls, guided by the Brasil-Nutri software, were compared with recovery biomarkers of protein, potassium, and sodium obtained from two 24-hour urine samples. Total energy expenditure was assessed using the doubly labeled water method.
resultsEighty individuals, aged 43 to 72 years, participated in the study. Self-reported energy intake (2,146 kcal/day) was lower than the total energy expenditure estimated by the doubly labeled water method (2,526 kcal/day), with a mean difference of 380 kcal/day. Self-reported protein intake (94.9 g/day) was higher than the biomarker estimate (87.6 g/day). For sodium, mean self-reported intake was 2.9 g/day compared with 4.7 g/day estimated by the biomarker, while potassium intake was 2.9 g/day versus 3.0 g/day, respectively.
conclusionThe Brasil-Nutri software showed acceptable performance for estimating population mean intake of some nutrients; however, important measurement errors were observed, particularly for sodium intake. In addition, correlations with recovery biomarkers were low to moderate, indicating limitations in individual-level agreement.
