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

backgroundIt is crucial to prepare adolescent mothers-who represent a vulnerable group where the importance of breastfeeding is increasingly emphasized-for the BF experience. A method on the rise or increasingly popular for promoting breastfeeding is through web-based education interventions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a web-based breastfeeding education program, developed by the researchers, on breastfeeding outcomes among adolescent pregnant women in the postpartum period.

methodsThis randomized controlled study involved a sample of 100 pregnant adolescents, aged 15-19 years, who were in their third trimester of pregnancy. The study commenced after obtaining ethical approval and permissions from the hospital where the research was conducted. A web-based breastfeeding education program was administered to the experimental group. Data were collected using a Socio-Demographic Data Form, the breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short Form (Antenatal Version), the breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short Form (Postnatal Version), and the LATCH breastfeeding Diagnosis and Assessment Scale. Data collection occurred during the third trimester (pretest) and the 1st and 8th postnatal weeks (posttest). Out of the initial 100 mothers, 90 completed the study.

resultsThe results indicated that adolescent mothers in the experimental group scored higher than those in the control group in the 1st and 8th postnatal weeks. Additionally, rates of exclusive breastfeeding and the intention to breastfeed for up to two years were higher in the experimental group compared to the control group.

conclusionsIt was concluded that the web-based breastfeeding education program effectively improved breastfeeding self-efficacy, breastfeeding success, exclusive breastfeeding rates, and intentions to breastfeed for up to two years.
