Finding F-1713

“Similarly, compared to alive birth status, the prevalence of stillbirth status was higher (PR = 2.40, 95% CI: 2.21, 2.62) for household exposed to unclean cooking fuel compared to those in households using clean cooking fuel.”

Structure

Source: Solid fuel
Outcome: Stillbirth
Setting: home
Study design: cross-sectional analysis of a national survey: households using unclean cooking fuel compared with households using clean fuel, with prevalence ratios for smoking, stillbirth and low birth weight (class 4)
Effect: other 2.40 (2.21–2.62)
Caveat: a prevalence ratio from a cross-sectional survey, so it compares households and not the course of a pregnancy; the study adds that households with low birth weight were 17% more likely to use unclean fuel
