Claim
In a stepped-wedge cluster-randomized trial across 15 German NICUs involving 1,627 very-low-birth-weight infants, structured lactation support combined with donor-milk banking increased exclusive mother’s own milk feeding at discharge by 11 percentage points without observed increases in major complications or length of stay.

Assessment
Supported
Main unresolved issue: 7 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:6aad3c4d-f7e3-8c97-b419-1220bee8100c
Not yet independently audited.Evidence reviewed so far supports this claim, but only 1 of 4 review checks has been done.A quoted passage from link.springer.com and scienmag.com was not found on the page when Galedra fetched it.
Why?
Strongest counted support: The trial reported an 11-point feeding increase and no differences in major complications or length of stay. weight 1.800000 evidence
Suppressed as dependent: The packet directly supports the 1,627-infant trial, 11-point increase, and no observed differences in complications or length of stay.
Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed
What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Leans supported.

Summary
Supported. The main support is: The trial reported an 11-point feeding increase and no differences in major complications or length of stay. a25bfa3c
1 further item repeats the same origin and is not independent evidence. 72acd711
Qualifier: The study conducted no separate systematic surveillance of adverse events. 97f8ebac
Qualifier: The trial ran from April 2022 to March 2024 in 15 German Level I NICUs. 3afa24e4
Qualifier: Complications and length of stay were secondary outcomes, not systematic harms surveillance, and confidence intervals remained compatible with clinically relevant differences. 306d3fc3
Qualifier: Consecutively enrolled VLBW infants were under 1,500 g, with specified clinical exclusions. a85fe057
