Predictors of exclusive breastfeeding practice among migrant and non-migrant mothers in urban China: results from a cross-sectional survey.
Article in BMJ open, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveTo explore and compare the predictors for exclusive breast feeding (EBF) among migrant and non-migrant mothers in China.
designA large-scale cross-sectional study.
setting12 counties/districts were covered in China.
participantsA total number of 10 408 mothers were recruited, of whom 3571 mothers of infants aged 0-5 months in urban China were used for analysis. OUTCOME: The practice of EBF was calculated based on the foods and drinks consumed in the last 24 hours, as recommended by WHO.
resultsAround 30% of Chinese mothers with infants aged 0-5 months practised EBF in urban areas, with no significant difference between migrant and non-migrant mothers (p=0.433). Among the migrant mothers, factors associated with EBF included residence in big cities (adjusted OR, AOR 1.68 (95% CI 1.20 to 2.34)), premature birth (AOR 0.27 (95% CI 0.09 to 0.81)), knowledge about EBF (AOR 2.00 (95% CI 1.51 to 2.65)), low intention of breast feeding in the first month postpartum (AOR 0.59 (95% CI 0.36 to 0.97)) and mothers working in agriculture-related fields or as casual workers (AOR 1.77 (95% CI 1.18 to 2.64)). Among non-migrant mothers, in addition to similar predictors including residence in big cities (AOR 1.40 (95% CI 1.13 to 1.73)), knowledge about EBF (AOR 1.25 (95% CI 1.02 to 1.53)) and low intention of breast feeding in the first month post partum (AOR 0.46 (95% CI 0.31 to 0.70)], early initiation of breast feeding (EIBF) (AOR 1.78 (95% CI 1.35 to 2.33)) and caesarean delivery (AOR 0.74 (95% CI 0.60 to 0.89)) were also factors associated with EBF.
conclusionsThere was no significant difference in the prevalence of EBF between migrant and non-migrant mothers in urban China. Premature birth and maternal occupation in agriculture-related fields or casual work were distinctive factors associated with EBF for migrants, while EIBF and caesarean delivery were unique predictors for non-migrants.
