1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveThe quantitative evaluation of actions to promote breastfeeding, with standardized material and method, is essential to understand their impact and allow international comparison. The aim was to know the prevalence of breastfeeding in Galician Health Area.

methodsA cross-sectional descriptive study through interviews, following methodology and questionnaire designed by the Baby-Friendly Initiative. The infant´s mother/caregiver were asked about feeding to calculate the five indicators proposed (exclusive breastfeeding under 15 days, exclusive breastfeeding under six months, continued breastfeeding at one year and two years, introduction of solid, semi-solid or soft foods). A random sample of 431 infants aged between 0 and 2 years of the participating centers, between 2013 and 2014, has been selected. Descriptive and bivariate analyses have been performed.

resultsIn the sample, 50.00% (95% CI 39.3 to 60.7) of infants fewer than 15 days were exclusively receiving breastfeeding. At 6 months, the prevalence was 50.28% (95% CI 43.0 to 57.6). Breastfeeding at 12 to 15 months was 34.62% (95% CI 22.0 to 49.1). At two years, it was 26.67% (95% CI 17.1 to 38.1), with significant differences between rural and urban areas. Between 6 and 8 months, all infants have breastfeeding combined with other foods.

conclusionsIn our environment the starting rate and average duration are lower than desirable.
