Diabetes mellitus and hypertension are both prevalent among Hispanic individuals, according to research studies. Therefore, these disorders should be included in the assessment. The other disorders (phenylketonuria, chronic liver disease, sickle cell anemia, and peptic ulcer disease) are not commonly associated with Hispanic ethnicity, and thus may not need to be prioritized in this assessment.
