Finding F-0593
“Regarding mold frequency, Fusarium spp. was significantly associated with case status when identified in kitchen samples (OR = 3.09; 95% CI: 0.98–9.70).”
Structure
- Factor
- Mould
- Outcome
- Cognitive dysfunction
- Population
- older adults (median age 69 years)
- Setting
- dwelling, CO
- Study design
- matched case-control study (1:1) of 60 older adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment from the INTERCOG study and 60 population controls matched by sex, age and neighbourhood (Colombia): housing characterisation, NIOSH Dampness and Mold Assessment Tool, air culture samples from bedroom, living room and kitchen, indoor CO2, humidity, temperature and mould-specific IgE, conditional logistic regression (class 4)
- Effect
- OR 3.09 (0.98–9.70)
- Sample
- 120 participants
- Flags
- source-inconsistent
- Caveat
- the sentence calls the association significant although the interval includes 1; the abstract's multivariable estimate is OR 3.86 (95 % CI 0.85-17.30), non-significant - that abstract sentence cannot be matched because the text layer joins '0.95- 61.16' across a line break
