这项研究使用了来自全国家庭健康调查-II的数据,这是一项来自印度的具有全国代表性的调查,涉及92,486个家庭,以调查家庭烟酒使用与儿童健康之间的关系。研究结果显示,吸烟或饮酒家庭的儿童接种疫苗的可能性较小,更有可能患上急性呼吸道感染,更有可能营养不良,更有可能在一岁之前死亡,即使在控制了其他社会经济和人口特征后也是如此。儿童生存的政策和方案可能还需要纳入控制家庭烟草和酒精使用的战略,以及其他正在进行的干预措施。(C)2004爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司。保留所有权利。
The study uses data from the National Family Health Survey-II, a nationally representative survey from India of 92,486 households, to investigate the association between household tobacco and alcohol use, and child health. The study findings show that children from households that use tobacco or alcohol were less likely to be immunized, more likely to have acute respiratory tract infection, more likely to be malnourished, and more likely to die before first birthday, even after controlling for other socio-economic and demographic characteristics. Policies and programs for child survival may also need to incorporate strategies to control household tobacco and alcohol use in addition to other ongoing interventions.
