Structure

Source: Cooking
Outcome: Birth outcomes
Setting: home, PK
Study design: multicentre hospital-based case-control study in Karachi: women with an adverse pregnancy outcome compared with controls, with tobacco use, kitchen ventilation and other determinants recorded by interview and analysed by logistic regression (class 3)
Effect: OR 1.7 (1.1–2.8)
Caveat: the study itself calls the kitchen without a slit or window a proxy indicator for indoor pollution; nothing was measured
