The Effect of Breastfeeding in the First Hour and Rooming-In of Low-Income, Multi-Ethnic Mothers on In-Hospital, One and Three Month High Breastfeeding Intensity.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Despite the known benefits of exclusive breastfeeding, the value of Baby-Friendly Hospital Interventions in increasing breastfeeding rates has been challenged, particularly the interventions of breastfeeding in the first hour of life and rooming-in. This study aimed to measure the association of breastfeeding in the first hour of life and rooming-in with high breastfeeding intensity of low-income, multi-ethnic mothers intending to breastfeed. A prospective, longitudinal cohort study was performed on 149 postpartum mothers who intended to breastfeed their infants. Structured interviews were performed at birth and one and three months. Breastfeeding intensity was defined as the percentage of all feedings that were breast milk, and high breastfeeding intensity was defined as a breastfeeding intensity >80%. The data were analyzed by chi-square, t-test, binary logistic regression analysis, and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Breastfeeding in the first hour was associated with increased high breastfeeding intensity in the hospital (AOR = 11.6, 95% CI = 4.7-28.6) and at one month (AOR = 3.6, 95% CI = 1.6-7.7), but not at three months. Rooming-in was associated with increased high breastfeeding intensity in the hospital (AOR 9.3, 95% CI = 3.6-23.7) and at one month (AOR = 2.4 (1.1-5.3) and three months (AOR 2.7, 95% CI 1.2-6.3). Breastfeeding in the first hour and rooming-in are associated with increasing breastfeeding and should be incorporated into practice.
