Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
These variables for adult males, if included in a survey, would usually be in both the PR and MR files, but with different names in the two files. You would open a file in Stata and then enter commands such as these: "lookfor height", "lookfor weight", "lookfor bmi", "lookfor body".
