Breastfeeding and Environmental Consciousness: A Narrative Review of Environmental Implications and Potential Contributions to Reduce Waste and Energy Consumption.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Breastfeeding is a natural and essential process that not only confers numerous health benefits to infants and mothers but also plays an important role in environmental sustainability. This narrative review explores the environmental implications of breastfeeding in comparison to formula feeding and examines the potential contributions of breastfeeding to reduce waste, energy consumption, and carbon footprint. By exploring the existing literature and research findings, this review sheds light on how breastfeeding aligns with environmental conservation efforts and reinforces the importance of promoting breastfeeding practices for a more sustainable and environment-friendly future.
