Following is a response from Senior DHS Specialist, Fred Arnold:
In NFHS-5, a subsample of household was selected to be part of the state module The state module includes a random selection of every other household in 30% of the primary sampling units. The remaining households are in the district module. The district module includes the entire woman's questionnaire and all of the biomarkers (the CAB component of the survey). The state module excludes the biomarkers and Sections 8-11 of the woman's questionnaire. There is a state module variable in the dataset which indicates whether a household is in the state module. Since most households are not in the state module, most households were not eligible for the biomarker tests. That's why you're seeing so many missing values for the biomarker tests.
