Haven't read the paper yet but based on what you've sent what they're saying
is that babies who were not EBF were nearly 4x more likely to die from SIDS.
Very significant.

Are there any maths boffins on Lactnet who could translate the
figures into numbers for us? " The univariable SOR for exclusive
breastfeed ing of any duration was 0.27 (95% CI: 0.24 - 0.31)." makes
my hair curl just a bit.....I know I am supposed to know these
things! ;)
