The influence of lifestyle habits on the perception of vestibular symptoms in patients with heart failure.

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
purposeTo determine whether lifestyle habits influence the self-perception of cardiac symptoms and dizziness in patients with heart failure.
methodsThis is a cross-sectional, retrospective, analytical study approved by the Research Ethics Committee (approval no. 4,462,519). The study analyzed 34 medical records of patients with a functional diagnosis of peripheral vestibular dysfunction, followed up at a cardiology outpatient clinic, collecting data on sex, age, body mass index, and lifestyle habits such as smoking, alcohol consumption, nutritional monitoring, and regular physical activity. It also analyzed scores from the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ). The data were subjected to inferential statistical analysis using analysis of variance (ANOVA).
resultsThe patients' mean age was 55.9 years, with a predominance of males (79.41%). Statistical differences were observed between the DHI emotional and total scores and alcohol consumption, and between the MLHFQ emotional scores and balanced diet. Regular physical activity differed statistically from the DHI and MLHFQ emotional impact and the total MLHFQ scores.
conclusionHarmful lifestyle habits such as alcohol consumption, poor diet, and a sedentary lifestyle negatively impacted the quality of life and self-perception of cardiological and vestibular symptoms in patients with heart failure and dizziness.
