Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
In the Stata lines I gave, "by(hv024)" is the syntax for getting the prevalence of stunting, etc., within each category of hv024, which is "region", usually the first administrative level of a country. In India, hv024 is states. The original question was about India and the NFHS-5. In Pakistan hv024 is provinces. The syntax works for any other variable, such as wealth quintiles, education levels, etc.

Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
You should use either the hc variables in the PR file or the hw variables in the KR file. You do not need to use the IR file or to merge the IR and PR files. In the KR file, individual children are cases and the mother's information is on the child's record.
