Free-living Validation of the RFPM in Adolescents
NCT04148560 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The primary aim of this small study is to test the validity of the Remote Food Photography Method and an updated SmartIntake app in a sample of adolescents. The investigators will test the validity (accuracy) of the method/app at estimating energy intake in free-living conditions over approximately three days compared to doubly labeled water. This is a small study that has low statistical power, but will provide important data nonetheless and inform future research.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04148560
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04148560 describes a study currently listed as active not recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 29 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Pennington Biomedical Research Center, which has 142 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 4 conditions, with Dietary Assessment appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Tests of the validity of the RFPM and SmartIntake app. is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04148560 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Louisiana. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
