Finding F-1796

“Using dirty cooking fuels significantly increased the likelihood of developing ARI symptoms in toddlers in the Philippines (OR: 1.99, 95% CI 1.11–3.56), while in Indonesia, the data were insignificant (OR: 1.09, 95% CI 0.85–1.40).”

Structure

Source: Solid fuel
Outcome: Acute respiratory infections (ARI)
