1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundTo explore the breastfeeding status of mothers with children aged 0-2 years after the major earthquake disaster in Kahramanmaraş, to reveal the obstacles to the sustainability of breastfeeding, and to reveal the problems and experiences they have in breastfeeding, preparing formula, and feeding their infants.

methodsThis study used a qualitative, exploratory research design with a phenomenological approach. Data were collected between September and November 2023 by face-to-face interviews using a Personal Information Form and a semi-structured interview form. A total of 21 participants who breastfed their babies before the earthquake and experienced the earthquake were included in the study, which was conducted using purposive sampling technique. Data were methodologically analysed using inductive coding and thematic analysis procedures. Max Qualitative Data Analysis Analytics Pro2020 software was used to code data.

resultsThe results revealed four primary themes and twenty-two subcategories. The four main themes were; (i) Expectations from Health Personnel, (ii) Suggestions of Mothers, (iii) Difficulties Experienced and (iv) Experiences in Breastfeeding and Infant Feeding.

conclusionThe results obtained in this study showed that mothers had problems in terms of information, support, equipment, appropriate area, and food supply related to infant feeding especially in the early post-disaster period. Insights into mothers' perspectives can help healthcare professionals understand the challenges faced by mothers during disasters and emergencies. In this way, nurses can take the lead in implementing programs designed to support continued breastfeeding and appropriate nutrition for children during disasters.
