Objective:
Meta-analysis was used to study the validity of image-based dietary assessment(IBDA) in evaluating energy and macronutrients intake, and compared with three traditional method: weighed food record(WFR), 24-hour dietary recall(24-HDR) and double-labeled water(DLW).
Methods:
Studies were retrieved and collected from various databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI), WanFang Database, VIP Database, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library and Embase, screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. After extracting the data, all the data were Meta-analyzed through RevMan 5.4.
Results:
A total of 24 studies were included. Meta-analysis showed that, comparison of IBDA method and traditional method in energy intake assessment[MD=-54.71 kcal/d(95%CI-118.81-9.39), P=0.09], comparison of carbohydrate intake assessment[MD=-2.77 g(95%CI-8.86-3.31), P=0.37], comparison of protein intake assessment[MD=0.00 g(95%CI-2.09-2.09), P>0.05], comparison of fat intake assessment[MD=0.10 g(95%CI-2.06-2.25), P=0.93], these differences were not statistically significant. Subgroup analysis showed that, IBDA method compared with the 24-hour dietary review method in protein intake(P=0.01), the difference was statistically significant. IBDA method overestimated protein intake by about 7.3% on average compared with the 24-hour dietary review method.
Conclusion:
There was no significant difference between IBDA method and traditional method in the assessment of energy and macronutrient intakes.
