呼吸道疾病的发病率在三组瑞典儿童中进行了调查：14个日托中心的儿童，每组18至68名儿童;家庭护理的儿童（通常没有兄弟姐妹）;家庭日托家庭的儿童（平均4名儿童）。在家庭日托所，母亲白天照顾自己的孩子和其他一到四个孩子。对41名参加日托中心的学龄前儿童和41名家庭护理的可比儿童进行了为期9个月的初步研究，结果显示，中心2岁以下儿童出现呼吸道症状和发热性疾病的天数（每个儿童4天）比家庭护理（每个儿童1天）更多。在随后的8个月的研究中，2岁以下的儿童，在日托中心和家庭护理的儿童与家庭日托家庭的儿童进行了比较。中心的108名儿童（每个儿童5名）比家庭护理的57名儿童（每个儿童2名）有更多的发热性疾病，但家庭日托中心的42名儿童与日托中心的儿童一样多。这些数据表明，增加接触的婴儿在日托超过4至6名儿童的数量不会显着增加呼吸道疾病的发病率。
The incidence of respiratory tract disease was investigated in three groups of Swedish children: those in 14 day-care centers with 18 to 68 children each; those in home care (usually no siblings); and those in family day-care homes (average, four children). In family day-care homes a mother cared for her own and one to four other children during the day. A preliminary nine month study of 41 preschool children attending a day-care center and 41 comparable children in home care showed that children under 2 years of age in the center had more days with respiratory symptoms and more febrile illnesses (four per child) than those in home care (one per child). In a subsequent eight-month study of children under 2 years of age, children in day-care centers and home care were compared with children in family day-care homes. The 108 children in centers had more febrile illness (five per child) than the 57 children in home care (two per child), but the 42 children in family day-care homes had as many illnesses as those in day-care centers. The data suggest that increasing the number of contacts of an infant in day care beyond four to six children does not increase remarkably the incidence of respiratory tract disease.
