English term or phrase: native Asian Indians
Estoy traduciendo un artículo titulado "Metformin: an old but still the best treatment for type 2 diabetes" que dice:

"The prevalence of pre-diabetes as well as the progression rate to diabetes may differ between different populations, making the application of results from certain studies of different ethnical groups inappropriate. IGT is highly prevalent in **native Asian Indians**. This population has several unique
features such as a young age of diabetes onset and lower BMI along with high rates of insulin resistance and lower thresholds for diabetic risk factors. Chinese individuals have a lower prevalence of diabetes and are less insulin resistant than Indians, so the results of the Chinese study may not be applicable to Asian Indian individuals.

¿Es sencillamente "hindúes"?

No tengo acceso al apartado de Discussion, así que permítanme hacer una aclaración desde aquí. Que hable el DRAE por mí.

hindú.
(Del fr. hindou).
1. adj. Natural de la India. U. t. c. s.
2. adj. Perteneciente o relativo a este país de Asia.
3. adj. Perteneciente o relativo al hinduismo.
4. adj. Partidario del hinduismo o adepto a él.

No creo que se quepa confusión alguna en un estudio médico, que no sociológico.

Por otra parte, se puede ser nativo de la India sin ser étnicamente indio.

  -> Muchas gracias, Yaotl. Saludos.

neutral  Judith Armele: Si se coloca sólo indios se presta a mucha confusión. En español tendemos a considerar indios a todas las tribus indígenas de América.//el original dice native asian indians y no indians a secas también. No veo difícil la confusión, hasta en este contexto
1 hr
  -> Me parece, Judith, que esa confusión solo se puede dar en el habla cotidiana. No me imagino un documento en que no se utilice indio de esta forma (p.ej: el gobierno indio) y no se utilice indoamericanos, aborígenes americanos o pueblos originarios de Amé
