Dear Sir/Madam,

For my thesis, inequalities in childhood mortality in Myanmar, I would like to investigate the associations between mother`s socioeconomic status (Education, Residence, Wealth) vs neonatal, post-neonatal & child (1-4) mortality by using Myanmar DHS STATA data-set (mmbr71)(2015-2016).

1) Could you please teach me how to do logistic regression to find association between mother`s residence(Urban/Rural) and post-neonatal mortality (10 yrs preceding the survey) as an example by using STATA data-set? I would like to learn the "do file" from previous similar studies as well.
2) Could you pls suggest the variables codes I should use for the treatments (education,residence,wealth) and outcomes (neonatal,post-neonatal,child)?

3) I would like to learn how to compute early childhood mortality rate stratified by background/demographic characteristics (Table 8.2 &8.3 from Myanmar DHS final report_2015/16) in STATA. Can I also learn the "do files" that were used to compute data for table 8.2, 8.3 and 8.5 in Myanmar DHS latest report? (table 8.2= Early childhood mortality rates by socioeconomic characteristics, 8.3=Early childhood mortality rates by demographic characteristics, 8.5= High risk fertility behavior)

Thanks in advance
Kind Regards,
Sai San Moon Lu
