PEER REVIEWED
Figure.
Interaction between age and race/ethnicity in diabetes prevalence among Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islanders and Asian subpopulations (N = 18,200), calculated as crude and multivariate prevalence ratios. Estimates are from weighted Poisson regression analyses (age–race/ethnicity interaction effect, P < .001). Nonoverlapping CIs indicate significant differences at 5.
