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

Ideally the trend will be based entirely on cases in the KR file OR entirely on cases in the PR file. The advantage of estimates from the KR file is that the KR file includes many other characteristics of the children, such as nutrition and healthcare, and they can be related to anemia. The advantage of estimates from the PR file is that they include all children in the household, not just those who are living with the mother. However, there will be very little difference between the KR and PR estimates because nearly all of the young children ARE living with the mother.

I recommend that you just take the estimates off STATcompiler, unless you want them for subpopulations that are not provided by STATcompiler. If there is a difference between the estimates in the final report and the estimates on STATcompiler, the estimates on STATcompiler are preferable.
