Food and housing insecurity: do they affect the continuation of breastfeeding at four months of age?
Article in Journal of hunger & environmental nutrition, 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
To examine the relationship between food and housing insecurity and the continuation of breastfeeding, interviews were conducted with 203 birthing parents in English or Spanish. The study was conducted between August 2019 and March 2021 in the southeastern U.S. The breastfeeding rate among participants was 52%. Multivariate analysis indicated that birthing parents experiencing housing insecurity were less likely to be breastfeeding at 4 months of infant's age (p = 0.019). Future research is warranted to understand how housing insecurity might contribute to the discontinuation of breastfeeding through stress, poor rent affordability and the lack of clean and safe environments.
