SE, Standard Error; US, United States; NH, Non-Hispanic.

a

Standardized for age, sex, education and income using 2002 March Current Population Survey.

b

For the Other Hispanic and Non-Hispanic groups, the small sample size rendered the coefficients and associated standard errors for these groups unstable in the statistical analyses; thus the standardized rates are not reported for these groups separately.

c

Based on NHANES 2001–2002 sample (aged ≥25 years).

d

For the Other Hispanic and Non-Hispanic groups, the small sample size rendered the coefficients and associated standard errors for these groups unstable in the statistical analyses; thus the rates and standard errors are not reported for these groups separately.
