Lipid signature changes of women with gestational diabetes mellitus in response to puerperal exclusive breastfeeding.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveWe here investigated whether lactation during puerperium could help to reverse the diabetogenic effect of gestation and further explored the lipid profiling changes upon breastfeeding.
methodsThirty-five women diagnosed with GDM were recruited, and fasting plasma samples were collected at ~6 weeks postpartum. Maternal metabolic parameters were determined, and an untargeted lipidomic analysis was performed. The relationship between underlying lipidomic responses and lactation was explored.
resultsImproved glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity were observed in GDM women who adopted breastfeeding during the puerperium. Further lipidomics analysis revealed prominent correlations between lipid constitution changes and breastfeeding in women with GDM. A total of 766 lipid species were identified, 33 of which were found to be significantly altered in response to lactation. Significant associations between dysregulated lipids and maternal metabolic parameters were also shown. Subsequently, we identified a panel of three lipids that were strongly associated with breastfeeding, from which we constructed a predictive model with higher discriminating power.
conclusionsWe generally revealed that lactation during puerperium appears to have favorable effects on diabetogenic risk factors for GDM women. We also discovered that lipidomic changes related to lactation could elucidate the mother's recovery from GDM pregnancy.
