The under-five mortality ratio is calculated as r^=U5MR^¯PMHGRP=1/U5MR^¯PMHGRP=0, where U5MR^¯ stands for the mean of estimated U5MR. And the baseline prediction of U5MR^ uses PMH status, education, environment, GDP per capita, health behavior, water and sanitation, urbanization, healthcare level, and HIV prevalence. The reported ratios in Table 3 are computed as the mean of r^ across 200 bootstrap replications, standard errors in parentheses. In each bootstrap replication, we randomly draw 70% of the total sample
