I am intending to analyze data on risk factors of macrosomia (birthweight of above 4000g) in Malawi and whether macrosomic babies have an increased risk of being overweight and obese. However, am not clear on how to categorize underweight, optimal weight, overweight and obese use BMI (Hw73). Would you please help me with SAS codes on how I could classify overweight and obesity in children under the age of 5?
