A comparative study of selected physiological parameters between middle-aged biomass using rural household women and liquefied petroleum gas using urban household women

Heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, muscular strength, metabolic rate, and hormone levels are a few examples of physiological markers or parameters which helps to assess the body systems. A third of the world’s population, or around 2.4 billion people, cook over open flames or inefficient stoves powered by kerosene, biomass (wood, animal manure, and agricultural waste), and coal, which causes dangerous indoor air pollution which contains health hazardous harmful pollutants. The purpose of the study was to compare the effect of health in terms of physiological parameters as a consequence of using biomass fuel as compared with liquefied petroleum gas users in middle-aged women.
