| The
diagnosis of ALRI was based on the presence of cough, tachypnea, chest
indrawing, or wheeze of <7 days' duration and followed the World
Health Organization's standard protocol for research on ALRI (14). The burden of ALRI falls particularly heavily on women, who do most
of the cooking, and on infants and children, who spend a great deal of
time near their mothers and are highly susceptible to ALRI. To
provide an even more complete indicator of the burden of disease, a
severity measure can be added to incidence and duration, or
alternatively, ALRI and acute upper respiratory infections (AURI) can be
analyzed separately. |
