Finding F-0700

“PLWH who had NO2 producing appliances present in the home were more likely to report chronic wheeze (OR 1.41; 95% CI 1.05, 1.90) and ≥ 2 respiratory exacerbations per year (1.43; 95% CI: 1.01, 2.05), while there was no association observed among participants without HIV.”

Structure

Factor: Nitrogen dioxide (NO₂)
Outcome: Wheeze
Population: persons living with HIV and persons at risk for HIV
Setting: home, US
Study design: Baltimore cohort of persons living with HIV and persons at risk for HIV (SHIELD): 1997 participants with baseline questionnaires and spirometry for reported household exposures, plus a 36-home pilot (SHIELD Home) with weeklong direct measurement of household PM2.5 and NO2; logistic and quantile regression adjusted for age, sex, smoking, race, HIV serostatus and lung function (class 3)
Effect: OR 1.41 (1.05–1.90)
Sample: 1109 participants
Caveat: the exposure is the reported presence of NO2-producing appliances, not a measured NO2 concentration; the register has no slug for respiratory exacerbations, so that part of the sentence is carried in extra
