Dear DHS Representative,

I am using BR File 2017-18 Pakistan, I use the following Commands on STATA 13.1

recode m71 (100/207=0 "WithinAweek") (208/320=1 "AfterOneweek") (998/.="."), gen (TimingofFirstPostNatalCheckup)

tab m71 TimingofFirstPostNatalCheckup

svy linearized, subpop(if bidx==1 & b0==0 & v210!=1) : stcox ib(0).TimingofFirstPostNatalCheckup


I have dropped the Observation from Azad Jammu & Kashmir & Gilgit Baltistan.


Therefore in my total 6 regions, the Univariate analysis is showing HR 0.235 for those women who had their first Postnatal care. (That is the Protective effect of delay in healthcare). p-vale 0.002


Q: Why is this so?

Q Is this phenomenon is known as Ecological Fallacy, provided my coding is correct?

Waiting for your reply

Best Regards

Dr. Hussain
