Finding F-0876
“After adjusting for potential confounding factors by the logistic regression models, the odds ratios (OR) of the liquid petroleum gas-only users for at least one respiratory symptom relevant to cough (OR: 0.39; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.20–0.78), wheezing (OR: 0.47; 95% [CI]: 0.26–0.87), and dyspnea (OR: 0.44; 95% CI: 0.24–0.84) were significantly lower compared to firewood-only users.”
Structure

- Factor
- Carbon monoxide (CO)
- Outcome
- Respiratory symptoms
- Population
- reproductive-aged women
- Setting
- home, LK
- Study design
- descriptive cross-sectional study among 403 reproductive-aged women (15 to 49 years) in the Central Province of Sri Lanka: cooking fuel and respiratory symptoms from an interviewer-administered questionnaire, exposure assessed with a breath carbon-monoxide monitor and carboxyhaemoglobin estimated from it, with logistic regression adjusted for confounders (class 4)
- Effect
- OR 0.39 (0.20–0.78)
- Sample
- 403 participants
- Caveat
- cough is filed under respiratory-symptoms because the register has no cough slug
