Real-Time Breastfeeding Documentation: Timing of Breastfeeding Initiation and Outpatient Duration.
Article in Academic pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundCurrent breastfeeding guidelines promote initiating breastfeeding ≤1 h after birth to establish long-term breastfeeding. Previous studies dichotomized initiation to ≤1 h versus subsequent hours combined. There are limited data evaluating the effect of initiation in each subsequent hour on breastfeeding duration. Our objective was to evaluate the association between breastfeeding initiated at ≤1 h versus the subsequent 23 hours after birth and outpatient breastfeeding duration.
methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, we analyzed real-time, discretely documented electronic health record (EHR) breastfeeding data for 3315 infants born at a university center and followed to age ≥12 mo at 27 university primary care clinics. The primary outcome was breastfeeding duration. The exposure variable was hour of breastfeeding initiation within 24 h postnatally. Data were analyzed by univariable and multivariable linear regression separately for infants born by vaginal versus cesarean delivery.
resultsIn adjusted models, initiating breastfeeding during each hour from age >1 to ≤6 h and during ages >6 to ≤24 h was not associated with decreased breastfeeding duration versus initiating breastfeeding at ≤1 h after birth for infants born via vaginal or cesarean delivery.
conclusionsDelaying breastfeeding initiation to >1 to ≤24 h after birth is not associated with decreased breastfeeding duration compared with initiating breastfeeding at ≤1 h after birth. Integration of breastfeeding measures into inpatient and outpatient EHR discrete data fields may clarify best practices that support long-term breastfeeding as a public health imperative.
