Association of Hearing Loss and Eating Habits in the Older Population.
Review in American journal of lifestyle medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundAge-related hearing loss, also known as hearing loss, is an important and increasingly prevalent public health problem worldwide, as it induces disability and social isolation.
objectiveTo verify the association between eating habits and hearing loss in the older population.
methodsA cross-sectional study with data analysis of older patients treated in an Outpatient Hearing Health Service accredited to the Unified Health System. Older people aged 60 years and over who attended the Health Service to begin adaptation in the study. The audiological evaluation was performed through Tonal and Vocal Audiometry exams, the auditory rehabilitation process was done using the Individual Sound Amplification Device, and eating habits based on the Dietary Guide for the Brazilian Population.
resultsThe sample included (n = 654) participants, aged between 60 and 97 years. The type of hearing loss revealed a higher prevalence of sensorineural of moderate degree. Individuals with higher consumption of tea, non-fatty meats, rice, fish, and fruits presented better hearing compared to participants with lower consumption of these types of foods.
conclusionA higher consumption of foods high in anti-inflammatories and antioxidants may decrease the risk of age-related hearing loss. A higher consumption of foods high in anti-inflammatories and antioxidants may decrease 50% of the risk of age-related hearing loss. The findings also indicate the hypothesis that a pro-inflammatory diet could increase the risk of hearing loss. Antioxidants are believed to counteract the deleterious effects of reactive oxygen species and may be effective in treating diseases related to oxidative stress, including hearing loss.
