Figures & data

Figure 1 Inclusion process of enrolled people.

Abbreviations: OB, obesity group (BMI ≥28.0 kg/m2); NB, normal-BMI group (18.5≤ BMI <24.0 kg/m2).

Figure 2 Comparison of fatty acids among four minorities.

Notes: (A and B), comparison of dietary fatty acids among four minorities; (C and D), comparison of plasma fatty acids among four minorities. (B and D), in the same fatty acid comparison, the darker the color, the higher the content; and the different color, the difference between the groups was statistically significant; the same color indicates no significant difference between groups. P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Notes: (AC), canonical correlation analysis of dietary fatty acids and plasma fatty acids in the Bulang people; (DF), canonical correlation analysis of dietary fatty acids and plasma fatty acids in the Naxi people; (GI), canonical correlation analysis of dietary fatty acids and plasma fatty acids in all people. r, canonical correlation coefficient; P < 0.05 were considered significant.
