Expectant Fathers» and Mothers» Perceptions of Breastfeeding and Formula Feeding: A Focus Group Study in Three US Cities.

Most research concerned with the psychosocial effects of breastfeeding is based on observational studies due to the ethical challenges of randomly assigning mothers to either breastfeeding or formula feeding groups.

As noted above, ethical standards have meant that random assignment to feeding groups is rarely possible, making other methodological and analytical steps necessary to ensure that research outcomes are accurately attributed to the relevant factors under study.7

The feeding groups were defined as being mutually exclusive (ie, exclusively breastfed and exclusively formula fed) in 10 of the 23 studies that reported data (5, 10, 15, 26 — 29, 32, 34, 35, 37).

The effect of study size, age groups at outcome measurement (comparing those aged 16 — 30 y with those aged ≥ 50 y), year of birth, the method of ascertainment of infant feeding status (whether contemporary or recalled over a period of ≥ 5 y) was examined by using meta - regression and sensitivity analysis.

Although there were insufficient data to explore the influence of the duration of feeding, exclusively breastfed persons are likely to represent a group who are breastfed for longer periods: ie, median breastfeeding durations of 4 — 9 mo were reported among the 3 studies with available data (24, 33, 35, 40).

That is, we found some evidence that small studies (i.e., those with higher standard errors, located to the right of the figure), compared with larger studies, reported larger mean differences in systolic blood pressure between infant feeding groups.

In a meta - regression analysis, the mean differences between feeding groups observed in each study were unrelated to the mean total cholesterol concentrations in that study (P = 0.42).

Although the restriction of analysis to exclusive feeding groups resulted in the omission from analysis of more than half of the studies (10 of 17, 14 388 of 17 498 subjects), the effects observed were homogenous and based largely on contemporaneous ascertainment of exposure (either from birth records at the time of feeding or by maternal recall within 6 y after birth).

Three publications were excluded: one study examined only the association between duration of breastfeeding and fasting plasma lipids at 17 y of age, and there was no formula - fed group for comparison (21); one examined the effect of nutritional supplementation in pregnant mothers, infants, and children on serum lipids in later life (18); and one was a review (22).

The estimates for the 7 studies reporting exclusive feeding were more homogeneous (χ2 = 8, P = 0.23) than were the estimates from all 17 studies; the overall mean difference in total cholesterol from the 7 studies reporting exclusive feeding was stronger (mean difference: − 0.15 mmol / L; 95 % CI: 0.23, − 0.06 mmol / L; Figure 3) than that in the remaining 10 studies (14 388 subjects) that did not report exclusive feeding (mean difference: − 0.01 mmol / L; 95 % CI: − 0.06, 0.03 mmol / L; χ2 = 14, P = 0.12; test for difference between groups, P = 0.005).

Our earlier work showed that other measures of blood cholesterol (ie, LDL) were available in only two - thirds of the studies that reported total cholesterol in adulthood by feeding group (10).

In the remaining 10 studies, the infant feeding groups were not completely exclusive, either because exclusivity of early feeding was unknown (4 studies), because the breastfeeding group included mixed feeders (5 studies), or because the bottle - feeding group included mixed feeders (1 study).

In particular, a formula - feeding group may be atypical in studies carried out at a time (ie, in the early part of the 20th century, when bottle feeds were predominantly cow - milk preparations)(15, 16, 24) or in cultures where breastfeeding was widespread (32).

Meta - regression was also used to establish whether mean concentrations of total cholesterol in each study had any effect on mean differences between feeding groups.
