(a) Comparison of prevalence of K1 infection between Chinese and non-Chinese (71.7% vs 41.2%; P = 0.040 by Fisher’s exact test). (b) Comparison of prevalence of non-K1/K2/K5 infection between Chinese and non-Chinese (3.8% vs 29.4%; P = 0.008 by Fisher’s exact test). (c) Comparison of prevalence of type 2 diabetes between Chinese and non-Chinese (34% vs 88.2%; P = 0.0001 by Fisher’s exact test).
