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 study was designed to explore the effect of postpartum family visits on the promotion of breastfeeding and the improvement of maternal and infant health.

methodsA total of 200 cases of parturients who gave birth in our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were selected as the research participants. According to a randomized, double-blinded and controlled manner, they were divided into a study group (n=100, with postpartum family visits) and a control group (n=100, without postpartum family visits). The amount of lactation, breastfeeding status, knowledge of breastfeeding health, and the incidence of maternal adverse events were compared between the two groups at different follow-up times after intervention. The physical development of infants and the occurrence of adverse events were also compared.

resultsThe lactation of the parturients in the study group at 28, 60, and 120 days after delivery was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the proportion of exclusive breastfeeding of the study group was higher than that of the control group (

conclusionPostpartum family visits for parturients can help improve breastfeeding, increase maternal knowledge of breastfeeding health, and also help reduce the incidence of various adverse events of parturients and infants, which is worthy of clinical application.
