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

This study investigated adherence to Indonesia's Dietary Guidelines (IDG) among lactating women, examining related factors and association with nutrient intake adequacy, maternal and infant biomarkers, body mass index, and growth. Participants were lactating women (n = 220) from urban and rural West Java, Indonesia. Dietary intake (via 3-day weighed food records), anthropometry and blood samples were assessed. Adherence was evaluated using a scoring system tailored for IDG and adapted from the Healthy Eating Index to assess intake of food groups, sugar, salt, fat, water, coffee, and breakfast habits. Starchy staples intake exceeded recommendations by nearly double (median 7.1 vs. recommended 3-4 servings/day), while vegetable (0.5 servings/day), fruit (1.0), and water (1300 mL/day) intake fell notably short. Protein-rich food intake (3.5 servings/day) was closer to target. Only 1% of participants met three out of four food group targets. Adherence to the meal-based MyPlate framework showed similar imbalances, with 68% of the plate occupied by starchy staples versus the recommended 33%. Sociodemographic factors, including education, wealth, and family size, were associated with adherence to IDG components. For instance, women in the highest wealth quintile had higher adherence scores for starchy staple moderation (mean 4.3) than those in the lowest (mean 2.9). Adherence to IDG components correlated positively with nutrient intake adequacy (e.g. protein-rich food and overall adequacy: r = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.06-0.32) but not consistently with maternal or infant biomarkers. These findings highlight the need to refine dietary guidelines with clearer portion guidance and consideration of factors beyond intake adequacy during lactation.
