Estimating the Impact on Parents' Infant Feeding Choices of Increasing Age Guidance and Adding Sugar Warning Labels to Commercial Infant Foods: A Mixed-Methods Study.

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: Minimum age guidance on commercial infant food (CIF) does not always align with government advice. Despite marketing suggesting that CIF is healthy, many are high in sugar. Objectives: To estimate the impact on parents' feeding choices of increasing age guidance on CIF and adding sugar warning labels (SWLs), including differential impact according to socioeconomic position. Methods: A convergent parallel mixed-methods study was conducted with parents or main caregivers of children aged 6-23-mo in the United Kingdom. In an online quantitative survey, participants ( Results: Similar numbers of participants selected products labeled "6-mo+" (84.5%) or "4-mo+" (88.0%, Conclusions: Results suggest that the mandatory use of minimum age guidance and SWLs on CIF could provide parents with agency and shift feeding behaviors toward closer alignment with recommendations. Importantly, the impact of these label changes appears socioeconomically equitable, and they are supported by parents.
