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
purposeThis study aimed to quantify duration of in-hospital breastfeeding (BF)-related activities in mothers after childbirth in a mixed ward-type hospital with an obstetrics department in Japan (hereafter, mixed ward).
methodsTwenty-two postpartum mothers (primiparous and multiparous) who had vaginal delivery in a mixed ward were instructed to wear radio beacons. A smartphone was placed in the BF room and detected the presence of a nearby beacon, 24 hours daily, measuring the number of hours a mother spent in the nursing room (defined as BF time [hereafter, BF-related duration]). BF-related duration included time spent for BF, diaper changes before and after BF, bottle feeding, and support from nurses. BF-related total hours during postpartum hospitalization were calculated. The effects of parity and each postpartum day number (postpartum days 1-4) on Daily BF-related duration were determined.
resultsPercentage of total postpartum hospitalization time spent for BF-related duration was 21.6% and 19.9% for primiparous and multiparous mothers, respectively, with no significant difference between groups. BF-related duration was significantly different between parity group and postpartum day, with peaks on postpartum day 4 (387.7 minutes) and day 2 (318.0 minutes) for primiparous and multiparous groups, respectively. (F = 2.813, p = 0.048).
conclusionMothers spent 20% of their postpartum hospitalization period for BF-related activities. Individual support is necessary, especially for primiparous mothers, who spent more time than multiparous mothers for BF-related activities on postpartum day 4. In a mixed ward, postpartum mothers need a comfortable hospital environment in which midwives can dedicate themselves to mother-child dyad care.
