using india's national family health survey (nfhs) dataset (an adaptation of dhs), the uhrc conducted an analysis of the poorest quartile of urban residents as compared to the rest of the urban population in indian cities. david satterthwaite in his editorial in environment and urbanization 2011 highlights the significance of uhrc's research. he states that uhrc's research provides "evidence of the lack of attention to the health of the urban poor. for instance, in 2004–2005, the under-five mortality rate of the poorest urban quartile in many states in india was two to three times that of the rest of the urban population. the evidence also points to considerable differences between states in this regard. the poorest urban quartile in uttar pradesh, for instance, had an under-five mortality rate more than double that of the poorest urban quartile in maharashtra. the analysis revealed that the under-five mortality rate among the poorest quartile of urban residents in many provinces in india was nearly three times higher than for the rest of the urban population. inter-provincial disparities also exist with uttar pradesh's under-five mortality more than twice as high as that of maharashtra. the analysis also showed that among the poorest quartile: 60% of children had not completed immunization regiments and around 50% suffered from undernutrition, about half of all births were not assisted by health workers, less than 20% had a direct water supply, and more than half did not use a flush or pit toilet to dispose of waste.sattherthwaite also stresses that uhrc's research exposes the "scale of health disadvantages experienced by the poorest quartile of india’s urban population and the large disparities in provision of health care, water and sanitation and in housing conditions in the urban population of seven states, between the poorest quartile and the rest of the population." this work has been referenced in numerous publications including unicef's state of the world's children 2012 report.
