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

When users have a question that is completely different from one they posted before, they are asked to post it as a separate question with a new title.

Are you asking again about the Pakistan 2012 survey? None of the DHS surveys in Pakistan have included hemoglobin / anemia. The variables for children and women are included in the PR files but they are empty. The variable labels include "na" and the cases are all coded with a dot, which in Stata means "not applicable".

If a survey includes hemoglobin, the priorities are children age 6-59 months, then women 15-49, then men 15-49 (the prevalence of anemia is usually much lower for men than for women). The variables for children are hc52-hc57. For women they are ha52-ha57, and for men they are hb52-hb57. PR files may include those variables even if they are empty.

When data are not collected during the fieldwork we cannot put them into the data files.
