Engagement of fathers has demonstrated improved long-term physical and mental health outcomes for women, men, and babies.
“In the broader postnatal health context, engagement of fathers has demonstrated improved long-term physical and mental health outcomes for women, men and babies [115, 116].”
From Men’s grief following pregnancy loss and neonatal loss: a systematic review and emerging theoretical model (2020) · cites this paper as [116]
Section 2, “Engaging fathers benefits infant and family health” (page unavailable), reports improved infant weight gain, oxygen saturation and breastfeeding associated with fathers’ involvement. The discussion of father-baby attachment also mentions short- and longer-term benefits for babies. The paper does not establish improved long-term physical and mental health outcomes for women and men, so the claim extends beyond its findings. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
