Article in Turkish archives of pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveBreastfeeding is the principal feeding source in the first years of life. Its targeted rates are not achieved properly, globally. Multifactorial reasons have been reported, but the effect of the facilities in the hospitals including lactation consultation clinics have rarely been discussed. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of breastfeeding education in a first officially organized clinic. This may further help authorities make any necessary interferences and improve public health strategies. MATERIALS AND
methodsA cross-sectional, interventional study was performed in 100 mothers who were given breastfeeding education and was compared with 100 mothers without education. All of the mothers were interviewed to assess breastfeeding attitudes after 6 months.
resultsThe study group demonstrated higher exclusive breastfeeding rates than controls (76% and 28%, respectively). Having an education was the most significant factor affecting exclusive breastfeeding duration (P < .05). Complementary feeding, bottles, and pacifiers were introduced significantly earlier in the control group (P < .05) There was a negative association between breastfeeding duration and both bottle and pacifier use (P < .05).
conclusionLactation consultation at a breastfeeding clinic improved the breastfeeding rate. Extending this project to maternity and children's hospitals will help to achieve the desired national targets in exclusive breastfeeding.
