很少有人注意到种族/民族群体在肥胖风险因素方面的差异。使用2011-2012年加州健康访谈调查的数据，我们检查了42935名成年人（24.8%肥胖）中白人、拉丁裔、亚洲人和非洲裔美国人肥胖风险因素的差异。对估计进行加权，以确保加州人口的公正代表。采用多元逻辑分析和线性回归分析来检验肥胖危险因素的差异。肥胖患病率存在较大的种族差异：白人（22.0%）、拉丁裔（33.6%）、非裔美国人（36.1%）和亚洲人（9.8%）。肥胖危险因素的差异也被观察到：白人（性别、年龄、体力活动、吸烟、关节炎和糖尿病药物摄入）、拉丁美洲人（年龄、关节炎和糖尿病药物摄入）、亚洲人（年龄、酗酒、关节炎和糖尿病药物摄入）和非洲裔美国人（性别、体力活动、吸烟、酗酒和糖尿病药物摄入）。女性在非裔美国人中更容易肥胖(优势比（OR) = 1.43, 95%可信区间(CI) = 1.05-1.94），但在白人中更不可能肥胖（OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.74-0.87）。在制定肥胖预防策略时应考虑种族/民族因素。
Little attention has been given to differences in obesity risk factors by racial/ethnic groups. Using data from the 2011-2012 California Health Interview Survey, we examined differences in risk factors for obesity among Whites, Latinos, Asians, and African Americans among 42,935 adults (24.8% obese). Estimates were weighted to ensure an unbiased representation of the Californian population. Multiple logistic and linear regression analyses were used to examine the differences in risk factors for obesity. Large ethnic disparities were found in obesity prevalence: Whites (22.0%), Latinos (33.6%), African Americans (36.1%), and Asians (9.8%). Differences in risk factors for obesity were also observed: Whites (gender, age, physical activity, smoking, arthritis, and diabetes medicine intake), Latinos (age, arthritis, and diabetes medicine intake), Asians (age, binge drinking, arthritis, and diabetes medicine intake), and African Americans (gender, physical activity, smoking, binge drinking, and diabetes medicine intake). Females were more likely to be obese among African Americans (odds ratio (OR) = 1.43, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.05–1.94), but less likely among Whites (OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.74–0.87). Race/ethnicity should be considered in developing obesity prevention strategies.
