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
backgroundThis study was conducted to determine the prevalence of breast milk and breastfeeding myths during pregnancy among Turkish, Turkish-Romani, and Syrian pregnant women and compare the similarities and differences between the countries. METHODS AND STUDY
designThe sample of the study consisted of 330 pregnant women who presented to a hospital. Data were collected with a 'Descriptive Information Form' and 'Breast Milk and Breastfeeding Myths Form' developed by the researchers. The Breast Milk and Breastfeeding Myths Form consists of items expressing common beliefs about breast milk and breastfeeding, and each item is evaluated with one of the following three options: 'yes,' 'no,' and 'no idea.' The forms were applied face to face to the pregnant women who came to the outpatient clinic. The data were evaluated on the SPSS (14.0) software package, and chi-square and advanced analyses were used for the statistical analysis.
resultsTurkish, Turkish-Romani, and Syrian pregnant women who made up the study sample had similar socio-demographic characteristics. It was determined that there were intercultural differences in 28 out of 30 myths evaluated by Turkish, Turkish-Romani, and Syrian mothers regarding breast milk and breastfeeding.
conclusionIt was determined that Turkish pregnant women had different myths about breast milk and breastfeeding from Syrian and Turkish-Romani pregnant women. It can be said that false beliefs and attitudes about breast milk and breastfeeding are common.
