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

If you look at the top of page 616 in the final report, you will see that there was subsampling in this survey, and the disability module was only applied in the households that were selected for the men's interview. This was half of all households, identified with hv027=1. It was also only given to household members age 5 and above.

In the Nepal 2022 survey, all of the disability variables are coded with a dot (in Stata), for Not Applicable or NA, if hv027 is 0 or hv105 is <5.
