Hello,

For children's anthropometry indicator you need to use the PR file and no merge is required. The code below will match the stunting indicator for example.

gen wt=hv005/1000000
//Stunted
gen nt_ch_stunt= 0 if hv103==1
replace nt_ch_stunt=. if hc70>=9996
replace nt_ch_stunt=1 if hc70<-200 & hv103==1
label var nt_ch_stunt "Stunted child under 5 years"


You can find this code and other code for DHS indicators listed in the Guide to DHS Statistics on our GitHub site: https://github.com/DHSProgram/DHS-Indicators-Stata
Specifically, this code is in Chapter 11 in the NT_CH_NUT.do file. We also have the code in SPSS here: https://github.com/DHSProgram

Please read the readme file and the main files for each chapter before using the code.

Thank you.
Best,
Shireen Assaf
