Dear DHS experts,
I am trying to estimate the trend and factors associated with U5M on three surveys appended data sets from Zambia (2007-2018). I want to cread a binary category for U5M to see the relations on separate subcategories , but I could not generate the binary outcome variable to incorporate tabulating by background characteristics in STATA. I have read several posts here and I came to understand the complex comand for assessing the overall 5 time period probability of U5M.
This has really took my time and your help is highly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Amanuel

Hello,
Before using the DHS Program GitHub code, please read the readme file and the notes for the main file in each chapter and well as the notes section at the top for each do file you plan to run.
Chapter 8 code will produce tables by covariates, however you need to run the code from the main file. If you check the CMmain.do file, you will see that this runs all do files in the chapter and produces tables using the CMtables1 and CMtables2 code.
To run the code, please change to your paths in the CMmain file and select your survey. If you are only interested in running the CM_CHILD and CM_PMR do files (with the associated CM_tables1.do), please comment out the remaining code from line 48 onwards in the CMmain.do file so those do files do not run.
Thank you.
Best,
Shireen Assaf
The DHS Program
