| Popis: | OBJECTIVES The distribution of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and obesity variables were studied among tribal and non-tribal populations with East Asian ancestry from northeast India. METHODS Data pertaining to somatometric measurements, blood pressure, lipid profile, and fasting blood glucose were collected from 1916 participants (Mizo-422, Liangmai-352, and Meitei-1142) of both sexes older than 18 years. Two-way ANOVA and chi square analysis were done to understand the inter-population prevalence differences. RESULTS Differential distribution of obesity variables, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and dyslipidemia was observed among the three populations. CONCLUSIONS Population-specific prevalence studies need to be conducted to develop population-specific health strategies, specifically in countries like India with huge diversity. |
