Hi

Please is anyone able to provide clarification to the queries above?

I also have additional queries:

The data specs says maximum age for men and women is 54 and 49 years, respectively: https://api.dhsprogram.com/rest/dhs/surveys/BD2011DHS

I found this to be true for the individual records BDIR61FL and BDMR61FL.

How was Table 15.5 generated to include older age groups? The report states in the last paragraph on page 234 (section 15.5) "all ever-married men age 15-54
were selected and interviewed for the male survey". Tables C.2.1 and C.2.2 also demonstrates the age distribution of eligible and interviewed women and men. And here the results are presented with maximum age 49 and 54 years, respectively. Please, how can I obtain results for older respondents as illustrated in Table 15.5?

Many thanks in advance for your help.
