Under-five mortality rate estimation
https://userforum.dhsprogram.com/index.phpindex.php?t=rview&goto=13114&th=6371#msg_13114
I have seen many discussion about the Under-five mortality estimation in this forum but not sure which will be working fine to relate with the National report.
I would like to use India DHS stata data to estimate NNMR=Neonatal mortality rate,PNMR=Post-neonatal mortality rate,IMR=Infant mortality rate,CMR=Child mortality rate,U5MR=Under five mortality rate and using BR file.
I'm using this code in Stata and can anyone help me what I am missing here?
gen hypage1=(v008-b3)
gen survivelength=.
replace survivelength=hypage1
replace survivelength=b7 if b5==0
gen dead=(b5==0)
ltable survivelength dead [fw=v005] if hypage1 <60 , int(0,1,3,6,12,24,36,48,60) failure
It would be appreciated if you can help me in this regards.
Thanks

Are this forum is monitor by somesome or just ignore the query? I am a new user in this forum and expected to get my query back from the program person. But I don't understand whether any timeline is there to get back the respose or this forum will not give any response to shortout my query.
Thanks for creating this forum.....]]>Jayanta2017-09-30T10:30:31-00:00Re: Under-five mortality rate estimation

This post might help...
I think the problems laid out in that thread might help you get there. In particular "Please see the Guide to DHS Statistics, pages 90-94, and pay particular attention to the Calculation section. We use a synthetic cohort life table approach as described in point 3 on page 91, and we estimate mortality for a five year period preceding the survey (see the diagram on page 93)..."
If that doesn't fully get you there, it might at least get you closer and then you could ask narrower questions that might be easier to answer. I'm not a mortality expert, and the calculations are a little tricky, but the Guide to Statistics and that previous thread are probably the best places to start.]]>Reduced-For(u)m2017-09-30T19:57:35-00:00Re: Under-five mortality rate estimation

Not sure if you have found your answer but here is a User-written Stata command that gets you all the child mortality rates easily:
syncmrates v008 b3 b7 [iw=v005]
You will have to install the ado file
findit syncmrates
Best
