: “There is a substantial protective effect of breastfeeding against atopic dermatitis in children with a family history of atopyThis case-control study of 304 infants (167 cases and 137 controls) showed that the infants who were breastfeeding had a reduced risk of diarrhea compared to infants who were not breastfeeding: 9/16 studies (56%) yielded a statistically significant protective effect of breastfeeding on GI infections;There was an overall 72% reduction of hospitalization among infants who were exclusively breastfed for ≥ 4 mo compared with those who were formula-fed. Насчет астмы там противоречивые результаты. Но помимо астмы полно других аргументов.. Among the studies that controlled for socioeconomic status and stimulation/interaction of the child, three concluded that breastfeeding promotes cognitive development, and four did not. Три показали лучший результат, четыре - одинаковый. Ну и?Adjusted (fixed effects) pooled mean difference of standardized effect estimate of cognitive developmental score was 3.16 (95% CI 2.35, 3.98) in favor of breastfeeding;Both verbal IQ and performance scores increase with increasing maternal education combined with a longer duration of breastfeeding, with the most profound effect of breastfeeding occurring in the highest education groups (P<0.005). In the lower education groups, these trends were less consistent. Before adjustments for covariates, children breastfed for >6 mo had mean verbal IQ scores 6.44 points higher and Block Design scores that were 1.13 points higher than children never breastfedВ общем, может, кто-то здесь не увидит аргументов за ГВ. Я вижу.
