Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationships and interaction among the exposure to environmental smoke,family history of chronic bronchitis(CB)and CB,in rural women.Methods A population-based case-control study χ~2 was used to analyze the relationship between environmental smoke exposure,CB family history and CB.Additive effects model was used to analyze the interaction.Results In the first stage,157 CB patients were screened from 24 268 women residents (prevalence rate is 6.47‰),then 92 patients(case group)and 114 healthy women(control group)were investigated in the second stage.Results showed that:coal/firewood for heating(OR=36.21)and CB family history(OR=6.41)might serve as the risk factors of CB in rural women(P<0.05).Factors as frequent cooking and using coal/firewood for heating had a positive interaction with family history of CB in rural women,CB with S as 5.39 and 9.02,attributable proportions of interaction (API)as 72% and 88%,relative excess risk of interaction(RERI)as 6.50 and 225.99,respectively.Conclusion Using coal/firewood for heating and CB family history might be the risk factors of CB for rural women.A positive interaction between cooking frequently,heating model and CB family history was also seen.
