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

backgroundJob satisfaction is associated with health and productivity. Workplace support for breastfeeding may affect working mothers' job satisfaction.

methodsWe analyzed responses from 488 women from the Infant Feeding Practices Study II (2005-2007). Using logistic regression, we assessed whether workplace breastfeeding problems at 3 months postpartum were related to low job satisfaction concurrently and, for a subsample (n = 265), at 9 and 12 months postpartum.

resultsCompared with women reporting no problems, women reporting three or more problems had higher odds (odds ratio [OR] = 4.76; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.03-11.18) of low job satisfaction at 3 months, and at 12 months (OR = 6.88, 95% CI: 1.33-35.58) after controlling for baseline job satisfaction. Models isolating problems with break time and space to pump/nurse showed more modest results.

conclusionsWork-related breastfeeding problems at 3 months postpartum were associated with low job satisfaction concurrently and at follow-up. Improving workplace breastfeeding accommodations could improve mothers' job satisfaction.
