Our results show that 29.5% of infants under 6 months were exclusively breastfed in China as the measurement of 24-h food recall. The rate is higher by 10 percentage points than that estimated in 2013 , but still lower than that in other low- and middle-income countries , with the same food recall method. Worldwide, 43 of the 188 countries with ava...
We found that a relatively large reduction in exclusive breastfeeding and increased initiation of semi-solid/solid foods began in the fifth month of infancy. Infants at this age were at risk for early-onset undernutrition such as anemia, which may result from the insufficiency of breast milk to meet the nutritional needs of infants [21,22,23]. No o...
Consistent with previous studies [11, 27], this study suggests the benefits of health of mother and infant for the sustenance of breastfeeding, especially in the first 4 months after birth. Maternal and child illness can cause an interruption of breastfeeding and decrease in lactation, and then contribute to early breastfeeding cessation or failure...
This study further deepens our understanding of the association of familial, peer, and workplace factors with maternal breastfeeding intention, which varied across different age of infants. In breastfed infants aged 2–5 months, those whose mothers were formally employed and received relatively long duration of paid maternity leave, were more likely...
China has a quite low rate of exclusive breastfeeding despite many years of efforts to increase it. Along with the many positive health effects that breastfeeding confers, more effective policies and programs to increase optimal breastfeeding could result in substantial public health gains. Our findings highlight a need to develop a comprehensive i...

Second, although this study covered many potential breastfeeding determinants of multiple levels, there are stil...

2023年7月13日 · Background In rural China, exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) prevalence is low and hospitals often fail to attain baby-friendly feeding objectives, such as ≥ 75% of newborns exclusively breastfed from birth to discharge. Empirical evidence for the impact of increased hospital compliance with recommended feeding guidelines on continued EBF in rural China is lacking. We sought to measure and model ...
2020年2月24日 · Background In China, the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding at 6 months was only 20.8%. In promoting breastfeeding for newborns, a number of strategies have been initiated by Chinese government. These actions facilitated a high breastfeeding initiation of 77 to 99.9% in different regions. However, the exclusive breastfeeding rates remained low at 6 months resulting from a high rate of ...
