Child Lung Health Study

We conducted a cross-sectional study of children aged 6-8 years, in Chikhwawa, rural Malawi, including households from communities participating in the Cooking and Pneumonia Study (CAPS), a trial of cleaner-burning biomass-fuelled cookstoves. We assessed; chronic respiratory symptoms, anthropometry, spirometric abnormalities (using Global Lung Initiative 2012 African-American reference equations), and personal carbon monoxide (CO) exposure. Full manuscript, including data collection methods, is available at http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/thoraxjnl-2018-212945 This dataset includes; questionnaire data (n=803): age, sex, anthropometry, respiratory symptoms, CAPS allocation; spirometry (pre-bronchodilator spirometry attempted by 802 children: grade A-C quality for 522 children), carboxyhaemoglobin (CoHb) measurement (n=798) and 24-hour CO monitoring (n=738).本研究在马拉维农村奇夸瓦地区开展一项针对6-8岁儿童的横断面研究，纳入来自参与《烹饪与肺炎研究（Cooking and Pneumonia Study, CAPS）》社区的家庭，该研究是一项清洁燃烧生物质燃料炉具的临床试验。本研究评估的指标包括慢性呼吸道症状、人体测量学指标、肺量测定异常情况（采用全球肺倡议（Global Lung Initiative）2012年非裔美国人参考标准方程）以及个体一氧化碳（Carbon Monoxide, CO）暴露水平。含数据采集方法在内的完整研究论文可通过以下链接获取：http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/thoraxjnl-2018-212945。本数据集包含以下内容：问卷数据（n=803）：年龄、性别、人体测量学指标、呼吸道症状、CAPS分组情况；肺量测定数据（共尝试对802名儿童进行支气管舒张前肺量测定，其中522名儿童的检测质量为A至C级）、碳氧血红蛋白（Carboxyhaemoglobin, CoHb）检测数据（n=798）以及24小时一氧化碳暴露监测数据（n=738）。
