Sorry, i left out a key number in my example that makes the example worthless. Here is what I meant to say:

For example, if a woman was 20 weeks pregnant with a hemoglobin count of 10.6 g/dl, according to the CDC criteria, she would NOT be considered mildly anemic because the threshold is 10.5. However, when looking at the thresholds used in DHS report tables (<11.0 for pregnant women), it appears as though she WOULD be considered mildly anemic.
