据报道，使用生物质燃料的室内空气污染水平较高，儿童的一些呼吸道疾病与燃烧这种燃料造成的污染有关。然而，人们对发展中国家的情况知之甚少。本研究的目的是比较孟加拉国不同季节使用生物质和化石燃料的家庭之间的室内空气污染水平和儿童症状的患病率。方法我们在有孩子的生物质（n = 42）和化石燃料（n = 66）用户之间进行了横断面研究
Objectives Indoor air pollution levels are reported to be higher with biomass fuel, and a number of respiratory diseases in children are associated with pollution from burning such fuel. However, little is known about the situation in developing countries. The aim of the study was to compare indoor air pollution levels and prevalence of symptoms in children between biomass- and fossil-fuel-using households in different seasons in Bangladesh.Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study among biomass- (n = 42) and fossil-fuel (n = 66) users having children
