Abbreviations: MA = Mexican American; BNH = Black, non-Hispanic;
WNH = White, non-Hispanic; APP = arterial pulse pressure; Kcal = kilocalories per day (energy intake); BMI = body mass index.
* Complete data were available for N = 4237 participants and sample weights were applied. BMI was natural log-transformed and Kcal was transformed by the square root.
† MA and BNH are compared to WNH regarding APP and have higher APP than WNH (positive coefficient).
‡ MA and BNH with diabetes are compared to WNH with diabetes and have lower APP (negative coefficients, significant for MA, only)
