mwana: An Efficient Workflow for Plausibility Checks and Prevalence Analysis of Wasting in R

Built-in data sets

anthro.01
A sample data of district level SMART surveys with location anonymised
anthro.02
A sample of an already wrangled survey data
anthro.03
A sample data of district level SMART surveys conducted in Mozambique
anthro.04
A sample data of a community-based sentinel site from an anonymized location
mfaz.01
A sample MUAC screening data from an anonymized setting
mfaz.02
A sample SMART survey data with MUAC
wfhz.01
A sample SMART survey data with WFHZ standard deviation rated as problematic

Wrangle data

mw_wrangle_age()
Wrangle child's age
mw_wrangle_wfhz()
Wrangle weight-for-height data
mw_wrangle_muac()
Wrangle MUAC data

Statistical tests

mw_stattest_ageratio()
Test for statistical difference between the proportion of children aged 24 to 59 months old over those aged 6 to 23 months old

IPC Acute Malnutrition checks

mw_check_ipcamn_ssreq()
Check whether IPC Acute Malnutrition (IPC AMN) sample size requirements were met

Plausibility check

mw_plausibility_check_wfhz()
Check the plausibility and acceptability of weight-for-height z-score (WFHZ) data
mw_plausibility_check_mfaz()
Check the plausibility and acceptability of muac-for-age z-score (MFAZ) data
mw_plausibility_check_muac()
Check the plausibility and acceptability of raw MUAC data

Neat output tables

mw_neat_output_wfhz()
Clean and format the output table returned from the WFHZ plausibility check for improved clarity and readability
mw_neat_output_mfaz()
Clean and format the output table returned from the MFAZ plausibility check for improved clarity and readability
mw_neat_output_muac()
Clean and format the output table returned from the MUAC plausibility check for improved clarity and readability.

Estimate prevalence of wasting

mw_estimate_prevalence_wfhz()
Estimate the prevalence of wasting based on z-scores of weight-for-height (WFHZ)
mw_estimate_prevalence_muac() mw_estimate_smart_age_wt()
Estimate the prevalence of wasting based on MUAC for survey data
mw_estimate_prevalence_mfaz()
Estimate the prevalence of wasting based on z-scores of muac-for-age (MFAZ)
mw_estimate_prevalence_combined()
Estimate the prevalence of combined wasting
mw_estimate_prevalence_screening()
Estimate the prevalence of wasting based on MUAC for non survey data

Utilities
