Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

The following lines will give the subsample for the disability variables for 5-17 year olds in this survey. I was able to match the number of cases by restricting to de facto household members with hv103=1. The "Nota" below the table refers to residency status but I don't read Portuguese and I can't tell whether it is consistent with this restriction. I HOPE it is, because that restriction was definitely made.

All of the hdis variables will be NA for the same cases, so you can look at just hdis1, and restrict to hdis1<., to get the cases that are not NA.
use "...MZPR81FL.DTA", clear
keep if hv105>=5 & hv105<=17 & hdis1<. & hv103==1
tab hv104 [iweight=hv005/1000000]
The construction of the relevant table (Table 20.4 in the MZ report) should be the same as before DHS-8, but please let me know if you cannot get a match. It is possible that no updates were needed for the disability variables. I would like to know if updates were needed and they have not yet been uploaded.
