Finding F-0907

“A similar mixed model using ‘place of cooking’ alone indicated that—compared with cooking indoors—cooking in a kitchen with no roof, walled veranda, or outside the household were all significantly associated with higher exposures (P<0.01 in all three cases).”

Structure

Factor
Carbon monoxide (CO)
Population
adults in a rural village
Setting
personal exposure of the participant in the household, MW
Study design
observational study in a rural village of Malawi: twenty adults wore paired personal PM2.5 and carbon-monoxide monitors for 831 hours in total, with a structured activity diary, and exposures were split into activity peaks and background periods and modelled against fuel, stove and place of cooking (class 4)
Sample
20 participants
Caveat
a stated direction without a number of its own; the model was of exposure, so the higher exposures belong to the open places, which the authors read as reflecting what is cooked there
