Finding F-1593

“Participants exposed to mold demonstrated significantly higher odds of depression (OR=2.26, 95% CI=1.93–2.63), anxiety (OR=2.11, 95% CI=1.80–2.48), and their co-occurrence (OR=2.58, 95% CI=2.10–3.16), compared to participants without mold exposure.”

Structure

Factor: Mould
Outcome: Anxiety
Setting: home, CN
Study design: cross-sectional analysis of a national cohort of older adults: self-reported mold exposure at home and the fuel used for cooking related to depression and anxiety, with adjusted odds ratios (class 4)
Effect: OR 2.11 (1.80–2.48)
Caveat: the same sentence gives depression at 2.26 (95% CI 1.93–2.63) and the two together at 2.58 (95% CI 2.10–3.16); mold exposure is reported by the participants themselves
