Structure

Source: Solid fuel
Outcome: Acute respiratory infections (ARI)
Population: children under five
Setting: home, TZ
Study design: analysis of three rounds of the Tanzania Demographic and Health Survey: cooking fuel of the household recorded by interview and acute respiratory infection in children under five reported by the caregiver (class 4)
Effect: OR 3.47 (1.31–9.21)
Caveat: the interval is wide; both the exposure and the outcome come from the caregiver's answers
