Good afternoon,
The Guideline on haemoglobin cutoffs to define anaemia in individuals and populations has recently been published (March, 2024).
In that sense, you could help us by sharing the calculation of the percentage of children (6 to 59 months) with anemia.
Considering the new adjustment equation, based on altitude, make said adjustment and the new cut-off points for children from 6 to 23 months to define anemia. If applicable, if they consider some length of residence as an inclusion criterion to apply the adjustment.
This is for the purpose of comparability.
Thank you so much
