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: Maternal decision-making regarding the use of infant formula milk in Indonesia is shaped by a complex interplay of social, economic, and informational factors. This study aimed to elucidate the determinants of mothers' choices when selecting formula milk in Sorong City, Indonesia, addressing gaps in previous research that overlooked the role of digital media and microeconomic factors in maternal decision-making. Materials and Methods: This study employed a cross-sectional observational design and was conducted from January to June 2024. A cohort of 180 mothers with children aged 0-24 months was selected using stratified random sampling. Data were collected using the Maternal Infant Nutrition Questionnaire (MIN-Q). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the significant factors contributing to the decision to use formula milk. Results: The findings indicated that most respondents [88 (48.90%)] exclusively used formula milk, while 92 (51.10%) adopted a mixed feeding pattern. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the use of digital media for nutritional information was significantly associated with formula milk use (α = 0.21, Conclusions: These findings highlight the need for government-led interventions, including digital literacy programs and targeted financial subsidies for low-income breastfeeding mothers, to promote exclusive breastfeeding. Therefore, credible digital education programs and more stringent regulations on formula milk marketing are essential to support maternal and child health policies in Indonesia.
