Replication Data for: Liquefied Petroleum Gas or Biomass Cooking and Severe Infant Pneumonia
Year: 2026
Type: dataset
Abstract: From the Abstract: Exposure to household air pollution is a risk factor for severe pneumonia. The effect of replacing biomass cookstoves with liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cookstoves on the incidence of severe infant pneumonia is uncertain. These data represent deidentified data from a randomized, controlled trial involving pregnant women 18 to 34 years of age and between 9 to less than 20 weeks’ gestation in India, Guatemala, Peru, and Rwanda from May 2018 through September 2021. The incidence of severe pneumonia among infants did not differ significantly between those whose mothers were assigned to cook with LPG stoves and fuel and those whose mothers were assigned to continue cooking with biomass stoves.
