Description
Jiamei Feng and co-authors published a research paper in 2024 profiling 724 patients with breast inflammation unrelated to childbirth or nursing, treated at a Shanghai hospital over seventeen years. This non-puerperal mastitis is painful and poorly understood. The team mined records for patterns in age, birth history, nursing history, and body weight.
Patients averaged about thirty-three years old. Over half were in their thirties, nearly two thirds were within five years of giving birth, and most had breastfed for under six months. In the thirty-something group, body mass ran higher than in the general Chinese population. Smoking, contraceptives, and injury showed no clear link. The authors tie risk to recent, short nursing and higher weight.
