Systematic review of randomised controlled trials of interventions that aim to reduce the risk, either directly or indirectly, of overweight and obesity in infancy and early childhood.

The majority of interventions demonstrated highly significant improvements in the outcomes assessed, which included uptake, duration and exclusivity of breastfeeding (Morrow et al . 1999 ; Kramer et al . 2001 , 2002 , 2007 ; Bhandari et al . 2003 ; Agrasada et al . 2005 ; Bonuck et al . 2005 ; Agrasada & Kylberg 2009 ), with two studies reporting significant improvements only in some of the outcomes assessed (Albernaz et al . 2003 ; Chapman et al . 2013 ).
