Psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the neonatal eating assessment tool-breastfeeding (NeoEAT-Breastfeeding).
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundLiterature reports indicate that breastfeeding is often ended earlier than planned, within the first 6 months. Assessment tools can help nursing professionals identify early breastfeeding problems to identify interventions to support families in meeting their breastfeeding goals. Here we present our analyses of the validity/reliability of the Neonatal Eating Assessment Tool (NeoEAT)-Breastfeeding adapted to the Turkish language for use in post-discharge infants in Türkiye.
methodsA Turkish version of the NeoEAT-Breastfeeding was created and applied to 310 mothers of term and preterm infants (corrected age < 7 months) between June 2023 and April 2024. Validity and reliability were assessed using Cronbach's α coefficients, exploratory/confirmatory factor analysis, and item-total correlation, test-retest, and known-groups analysis.
resultsThe Turkish NeoEAT-Breastfeeding includes 59 items in 6 factors with 48.047% total explained variance. Exploratory factor analysis indicated that item factor loadings ranged from 0.314 to 0.788. Known-group analysis confirmed that infants with diagnosed feeding problems had higher total and subscale scores than those without (P < 0.05). The Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.87. Item-total correlations were sufficient (0.302-0.753; P < 0.01). There was excellent agreement between test values and retest values obtained after a two-week interval (intraclass correlation coefficients = 0.904-1.000).
conclusionThe Turkish NeoEAT-Breastfeeding was shown to be a reliable and valid parent-reported measure of feeding problems in breastfed infants younger than 7 months of corrected age after discharge.
