Infant feeding experiences of women with systemic lupus erythematosus: A qualitative study.
Article in Lupus, 2025. 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
Background/ObjectiveAlthough breastfeeding is safe in women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who take breastfeeding-compatible medications, rates of breastfeeding are inconsistent, and little is known about the lived experiences surrounding infant feeding among women with SLE. In this qualitative study, we identified factors that influence infant feeding practices of these women.MethodsUsing a phenomenological approach, we conducted and thematically analyzed semi-structured interviews on infant feeding practices with adult women with SLE evaluated at a single tertiary care musculoskeletal center who had given birth within the last 6 years. We collected and summarized maternal, SLE disease, and pregnancy characteristics using descriptive statistics.ResultsSemi-structured interviews were conducted among 19 women with SLE with mean age of 36.1 years at delivery. We identified four overarching themes: general considerations related to infant feeding, medical considerations related to infant feeding, perspectives on infant feeding, and messages to peers with SLE and healthcare providers.ConclusionsWe identified both SLE-specific and disease-agnostic factors impacting infant feeding behaviors in women with SLE. SLE-specific factors influencing infant feeding practices should be viewed holistically within the context of individuals' personal preferences, which in turn may be shaped by interpersonal and cultural factors. Our findings can inform shared decision-making related to infant feeding practices in women with SLE, as well as tailored educational strategies to meet their unique needs.
