Ip, S., M. Chung, et al. (2007). "Breastfeeding and maternal and infant health outcomes<br />

in developed countries."<br />

“Our meta-analysis included only studies that reported clear definitions of exposure,<br />

outcomes, and results adjusted <strong>for</strong> well-known confounders or risk factors <strong>for</strong> SIDS. The<br />

summary estimate found a statistically significant adjusted odds ratio <strong>for</strong> an association<br />

between breastfeeding and a reduced risk of SIDS (adjusted OR 0.64, 95%CI 0.51 - 0.81).<br />

We conclude that there is a relationship between breastfeeding and a reduced risk of SIDS.”<br />
