Analysis of relevant factors influencing size of breast abscess cavity during lactation: a cross-sectional study.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2024. 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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate risk factors for the severity of breast abscess during lactation.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the Questionnaire survey of breast abscess patients. According to whether the maximum abscess diameter > 5 cm, the patients were divided into two groups for univariate and multivariate regression analysis.
results1805 valid questionnaires were included. Univariate and Binary logistic regression analysis demonstrated that low education (OR = 1.5, 95% CI 1.1-2.0, P = 0.005), non-exclusive breastfeeding (OR = 0.7, 95% CI 0.6-0.9, P = 0.004), fever > 37.5 ℃ (OR = 0.7, 95% CI 0.6-0.9, P = 0.003), flat or inverted nipples (OR = 0.7, 95% CI 0.6-0.9, P = 0.005), antibiotic used (OR = 0.7, 95% CI 0.6-0.9, P = 0.006), and non-medical massage (OR = 0.3, 95% CI 0.2-0.4, P < 0.001) were the effective independent influencing factors for the maximum breast abscess diameter > 5 cm.
conclusionLow education, non-exclusive breastfeeding, fever > 37.5 ℃, inverted or flat nipples, antibiotic used, and non-medical massage history have adverse effects on the severity of breast abscess during lactation.
