The Effects of 6-Month Exclusive Breastfeeding on Febrile Seizure: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Iranian journal of child neurology, 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
Objectives: Prior research investigating the variance in febrile seizure (FS) incidence between 6-month-old exclusively breastfed (EBF) and partially breastfed children has yielded inconsistent findings. To fill this void, this study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. Materials & Methods: This study performed a search across electronic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, the Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar without any restrictions, from the year 2000 up to January 2024. Results: Thirteen studies were reviewed. Regarding six articles (data number=1876753) used in the meta-analysis, EBF (OR=0.65, 95% CI: 0.50, 0.85) and partial breastfeeding (OR=0.92, 96% CI: 0.91, 94) were both significantly associated with lower risks of FS. However, the association in the EBF group was stronger. Conclusion: Breastfeeding positively affects lowering the risk of FS. Encouraging mothers to breastfeed and implementing preventive strategies can be beneficial for health policymakers in reducing the incidence of FS.
