Declarations
:
: We used datasets provided by the Demographic Health Surveys programme and have not had any form of contact with the study participants. Informed consent for the present analysis was not necessary because secondary data analysis did not involve interaction with the participants. Ethical clearance for the Demographic Health Survey (DHS) was provided by the Ethiopia Health and Nutrition Research Institute (EHNRI) Review Board, the National Research Ethics Review Committee (NRERC) at the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Institutional Review Board of ICF International, and the CDC. The DHS programme recognizes and adheres to established international and local ethical standards and protocols in its surveys. Further information regarding the DHS data usage and ethical standards can be accessed online (ExternalRef removed). An approval letter for the use of the EDHS data set was gained from MEASURE DHS. All methods were carried out in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations.
