The effect of the patient rotation and movement system (PRMS) on breastfeeding success, pain, and comfort in puerperants who gave birth by caesarean delivery.
Trial report in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2026. 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
backgroundThis study was conducted to determine the effect of the patient rotation and movement system (PRMS) on breastfeeding success, pain, and comfort in puerperants who gave birth by caesarean delivery.
methodsThis is a randomised controlled trial. Data were collected in the caesarean unit of Kars Harakani State Hospital between 01.12.2020 and 30.06.2021. The study was completed with 146 puerperants (experimental group n = 74; control group n = 72). Data were collected using the LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnosis and Evaluation Scale, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Postpartum Comfort Scale (PCS), and Lactogenesis Symptoms Follow-up Form. The trial was retrospectively registered at ClinicalTrials.gov.
resultsLATCH scores were significantly higher in the experimental group at all breastfeeding assessments (p < 0.001). VAS pain scores were significantly lower in the experimental group during the first three breastfeeding sessions and the first breastfeeding before discharge (p < 0.05). Physical comfort and total PCS scores were significantly higher in the experimental group (p < 0.05). Most lactogenesis breast symptoms were more prevalent in the experimental group from postpartum day 2 onward. No adverse events related to PRMS use were observed during the study period.
conclusionsThe PRMS improved breastfeeding success, reduced early postpartum pain, and enhanced physical comfort after caesarean delivery. No significant effect was observed on psychospiritual or sociocultural comfort. These findings suggest the PRMS may be a promising non-pharmacological supportive strategy in post-caesarean care. Future studies with formal safety endpoints and standardised protocols are warranted.
