Factors Influencing Malnutrition in Patients with Heart Failure: A Scoping Review Based on the Biopsychosocial Model.
Review in Risk management and healthcare policy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Background: Heart failure is characterized by high rates of hospitalization, substantial medical expenses and increased mortality, posing a serious threat to human health. Malnutrition is a common complication among patients with heart failure and is associated with increased risks of infection, rehospitalization and mortality, resulting in a considerable disease burden and financial strain on both patients and their families. Identifying patient-related influencing factors is the primary prerequisite for recognizing the risk of malnutrition. Objective: This scoping review aims to systematically summarize the factors influencing malnutrition in patients with heart failure, based on evidence from both domestic and international studies. Methods: Studies on malnutrition in heart failure were retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, CNKI and Wanfang, from database inception to 25 May 2025. Two researchers independently screened titles and abstracts and extracted data according to predefined criteria. Findings were categorized and reported descriptively. Results: A total of 30 studies were included. The reported prevalence of malnutrition in heart failure varied by assessment tool. Based on the biopsychosocial model, nine categories of influencing factors were identified: demographic characteristics, disease characteristics, clinical physiological indicators, pharmacological treatment, emotional status, cognitive function, behavior, support system and living environment. Conclusion: This scoping review provides the first comprehensive summary of malnutrition-related factors in patients with heart failure through the biopsychosocial model. The findings indicate that malnutrition in patients with heart failure is affected by both subjective and objective factors and is closely associated with disease progression. A comprehensive understanding of the influencing factors of malnutrition contributes to the development of more precise nutritional risk assessment tools and lays the foundation for a continuous management pathway of screening, assessment, intervention, and monitoring to facilitate early risk identification.
