Disparities in Diabetes Prevalence Among Native Hawaiians/Other Pacific Islanders and Asians in Hawai‘i

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, < .001). Nonoverlapping CIs indicate significant differences at 5.
