of course, more detailed screening may show more indians at risk.
also, i think some of the white guidelines may not be appropriate for indians and other asians. for instance, i understand that the BMI numbers for whites (if i remember right, around 20 is ok) do not seem to work for indians -- it appears there are many skinny (ie BMI is good) indians who are at risk of diabetes and other diseases.
