Does anyone know? How the DHS reports define tl and tu for each age group i.e. 0, 1-2, 3-5?

Does anyone know? How the DHS reports define al and au for age group (0) as it does not have upper and lower i.e. age group 1-2?

Any response will be appreciated.




I am not sure if this forum is monitored by DHS people and whether if they care. It is difficult to find some basic information about DHS reports to replicate findings.

I read almost all threads on mortality. The majority of the responses are just a loop of the same thing i.e. see manual and see DHS report. It is further frustrating that DHS publish reports and does not explain adequate its methods. And it also seems to me that they do not want to release certain steps, guides or codes to public so they can keep the monopoly! or at least they key certain things ambiguous!
