<< Conclusions Selective publication of small studies with positive findings

of limited clinical or public health importance. >>
Well, I don't see any indication of whether they were comparing exclusive
breastfeeding with exclusive formula feeding, and how long the study considered
"infancy" to be, so their conclusions need work anyway.
