Recommendations
As issued by the authors
Prevalences of T2DM and stroke mortality are higher in all Asian American subgroups than in non-Hispanic White adults
Atherosclerotic CVD risk is highest among South Asian and Filipino adults, lowest among Chinese, Japanese and Korean adults
Future studies of atherosclerotic CVD risk in Asian American adults need to be adequately powered, incorporate multiple Asian ancestries and include multigenerational cohorts
Further refining the Pooled Cohort Equations, in addition to enhancers, would allow better risk estimation in segments of the population
