Fig 1 Odds of peripheral arterial disease (PAD; ankle-brachial index [ABI] ≤ 0.90) by Hispanic/Latino background group, weighted to the sampling probability. Reference group: Mexican Americans; vertical bars, 95% confidence intervals. Model 1: Adjusted for age, gender. Model 2: Adjusted for model 1 variables + height + waist circumference + immigrant generation, educational attainment. Model 3: Adjusted for model 2 variables + hypertension + diabetes + dyslipidemia + smoking.
