Hi,

Using DHS data, you can replicate parts of the table on nutritional status of women.

I used the Individual Recode file...
Example for India DHS 2015-16 (National Family Health Survey = NFHS-4)

For Stata

/****/
clear all
set more off
set mem 1g
set matsize 800
cd "..."
use "SLIR61FL", clear

**********************************

** WEIGHT VARIABLE
gen weight = v005/1000000

********************************************************************************

** SURVEY SET
gen psu =    v021
gen strata = v023

svyset psu [pw = weight], strata(strata) vce(linearized)
*svydes

********************************************************************************

/*
		Underweight		=	Less than 18.5
		Normal			=	Between 18.5 and 24.9

*/

gen bmi=v445/100 
gen bmic=1 if bmi<18.5
replace bmic=2 if bmi>=18.5 & bmi<25
replace bmic=3 if bmi>=25 & bmi<30
replace bmic=4 if bmi>=30 & bmi<60
label define bmic 1"Underweight" 2"Normal" 3"Overweight" 4"Obese"
label values bmic bmic
svy: tab bmic, count percent format(%4.1f) col
*tab bmic [iw=weight]

gen ht_flag=0
replace ht_flag=1 if v438>9000
gen preg_flag=0
replace preg_flag=1 if v213==1
gen months_since_last_birth=v008-b3_01
gen recent_birth_flag=0
replace recent_birth_flag=1 if months_since_last_birth <=1

*tab bmic if ht_flag==0 & preg_flag==0 & recent_birth_flag==0 [iw=weight]

********************************************************************************
