Hi,

as part of my Master's thesis, I am analyzing negative birth outcomes and birth complications among Syrian refugees/migrants in Turkey and the general Turkish population using STATA. For this purpose, I am using the 2018 Turkey DHS (TDHS) dataset as well as the separate Syrian migrant sample (TDHS-SM) dataset.

I examined the variable v228 - "ever had a terminated pregnancy" in the TDHS-SM in both the all births file (BR) and the women's file (IR) and noticed a discrepancy in the total number of observations for v228 between the two files. How does this discrepancy arise? I understand that the BR-file includes more observations, not just women. However, what specifically causes the different numbers for v228 in the BR and IR files?

Best,
