Finding F-1697

“The odds ratios of acute respiratory infection were 2.97 (95% CI: 1.38-3.87) and 1.96 (95% CI: 0.78-4.89) in households using biomass fuel and kerosene, respectively, relative to cleaner fuels.”

Structure

Source: Biomass fuel
Outcome: Acute respiratory infections (ARI)
Setting: home
Study design: cross-sectional study of households with young children: the predominant cooking fuel related to acute respiratory infection in the two weeks before the survey, controlling for confounders (class 4)
Effect: OR 2.97 (1.38–3.87)
Caveat: the same sentence puts kerosene at 1.96 (95% CI 0.78-4.89), which is not significant
