Dear Emily,

Monica Kothari, one of the authors of the Nutrition Update is requesting more information to be able to answer your question:

Does you mean more data points in the STATcompiler than the Nutrition Update 2010 or final reports?

Difference in the numbers between STATcompiler and report numbers are usually due to the variation in the universe of women selected for the analysis, de jure de facto etc.

Further for underweight among women the numbers should not vary too much between the STATcompiler and the reports. Can you share with us the specific discrepancies in the numbers so that it is easier to respond.

Thanks,
Sarah at DHS
