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

backgroundWomen with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) frequently encounter challenges that impede successful breastfeeding, despite its significant benefits for postnatal glycemic control. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the Breastfeeding Education Package (BFEP) on the knowledge, attitude, self-efficacy, and breastfeeding practices among pregnant women with GDM. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis Randomized Controlled Trial was conducted in Selangor, Malaysia, randomized 58 pregnant women with GDM into an Intensive Breastfeeding Intervention (IBI) group (

resultsA two-way repeated measures ANOVA confirmed the effectiveness of the intervention, revealing a significant difference between the IBI group and the CG in improving breastfeeding knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy (

conclusionBFEP is an effective intervention that significantly improves the antenatal knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy of mothers with GDM. These psychosocial enhancements, in turn, translate into a longer duration of breastfeeding post-delivery.
