Finding F-0946

“Cooking with moderately polluting fuel was associated with a 0.718 increase in CO concentrations (0.718 [95% CI: 0.084, 1.352; p = 0.027]) in the living area.”

Structure

Source: Charcoal
Factor: Carbon monoxide (CO)
Setting: living room, UG
Study design: cross-sectional study in an informal urban settlement in Fort Portal city, Uganda: PM2.5 and carbon monoxide measured in the cooking and the living area of households during cooking time, with linear regression against fuel type and cooking characteristics (class 4)
Effect: beta 0.718 (0.084–1.352)
Caveat: the unit of the coefficient is not printed in the sentence; the outcome of the model is the carbon-monoxide concentration in ppm
