Figure 1 *Ethnic-specific odds ratios for peripheral arterial disease. *Non-Hispanic white = reference group; p < 0.05. AA = African American; AS = Chinese; HS = Hispanic. Model 1 = adjusted for age and gender; model 2 = adjusted for those in model 1 + diabetes, smoking, hypertension, dyslipidemia, body mass index, education, and income; model 3 = adjusted for those in model 2 + interleukin-6, fibrinogen, D-dimer, and homocysteine.
