Sample sizes for BRINDA project analyses. The total sample size for BRINDA analyses for the reference value calculations is based on surveys with available AGP or CRP data. The total sample size for BRINDA analyses for the adjustment calculations is based on surveys with available data for both AGP and CRP and either ferritin, sTfR, retinol, or RBP concentrations. Pakistan 2011 is included in BRINDA phase 1 for children but included in BRINDA phase 2 for women. Only AGP data were available in BRINDA phase 1 and CRP data became available in BRINDA phase 2 for women. Thus, Pakistan data (8,261 women) were included in the calculations of the AGP reference for BRINDA phase 1 but are counted under BRINDA phase 2 in this flowchart. AGP, α-1-acid glycoprotein; BRINDA, Biomarkers Reflecting Inflammation and Nutritional Determinants of Anemia; CRP, C-reactive protein; RBP, retinol-binding protein; sTfR, soluble transferrin receptor.
