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

Introduction: the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends immediate and exclusive breastfeeding in order to reduce malnutrition and neonatal mortality. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) and to identify its associated factors among mothers of children aged 6 to 12 months in Kaolack. Method: we conducted a cross-sectional descriptive and analytical study. The study was conducted from July 8 Results: a total of 400 women were enrolled in the study. Among them, 51.8% practiced EBF according to the WHO recommendations. The average age of mothers was 27.42 years; 56.3% were housewives and 82.7% have done at least 4 antenatal care (ANC). Logistic regression showed an association between EBF and the following factors: age < 25 years (OR=2.03 CI 95% [1.23-3.36]), receiving advice on EBF during ANCs (OR=2.92 CI 95% [1.70-5.01]), receiving advice on EBF during postnatal care (PNC) (OR=4.33 CI 95% [2.51-7.45]), the permanent presence of mother with her baby (OR=3.97 CI 95% [1.99-7.91]), and a good knowledge of EBF (OR=4.54 CI 95% [1.96-10.51]). Conclusion: these modifiable factors can help improve the practice of EBF in the city of Kaolack.
