Finding F-1038
“In trial 2, the improved biomass stove had a similar PM2.5 concentration to those in trial 1 at 885 (95% CI=810, 959) lg/m3, while the LPG stoves had a lower mean concentration of 442 (95% CI=405, 482) lg/m3.”
Structure
- Source
- Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)
- Factor
- Particulate matter (PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀)
- Setting
- kitchen, NP (trial 2)
- Study design
- two randomised trials in rural Nepal: households received an improved biomass stove or a liquefied petroleum gas stove, with kitchen one-day average PM2.5 measured and birth outcomes recorded (class 3)
- Effect
- mean 442 (405–482)
- Averaging time
- 24 h
- Caveat
- the text layer prints the unit as 'lg/m3' where the source has μg/m3; even the gas kitchens stay far above the WHO guideline
