A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Assessing the Impact of Improved Cookstove Technology Trials (ICTs) on Household Air Pollution and Human Health in Sub-Saharan Africa
David Dillon e outros, 2025 · Current Environmental Health Reports
Improved cookstove interventions did not significantly reduce the relative risk of respiratory infections compared to traditional stoves across five trials in sub-Saharan Africa.

There was no difference in relative risk of respiratory infection between control and intervention groups— 0.84 (95% CI: 0.49, 1.45; I2: 87.5% (73.2%, 94.2%)).
Contexto
What changed: Households were provided with improved cookstove technologies (improved biomass or LPG) to replace traditional biomass cooking. Comparison: Households continuing traditional stove and solid fuel use. Limits: Substantial heterogeneity across studies (I2 = 87.5%), widespread stove stacking, and persistent ambient air pollution exposures outside the home.
