Dear Forum,

I was wondering whether the DHS datasets have used a Standardized Monitoring and Assessment of Relief and Transitions (SMART). I am interested in some anthropometric measures in order to carry analysis on children under age 5 malnutrition from developing countries. I would need datasets that have used the SMART Methodology, so age, sex, weight, height and mid-upper-arm circumference (MUAC) are key variables to my analysis. After careful examination of some datasets, I can't find the MUAC measure, so I am also wondering if any DHS datasets have collected this variable.

Thanks very much for your help.
Best wishes,
