| Abstract | Background Previous studies have evaluated the association of multimorbidity with higher mortality, but epidemiologic data on the association between the disease clusters and all-cause mortality risk are rare. We aimed to examine the relationship between multimorbidity (number/ cluster) and all-cause mortality in Chinese older adults. Methods We conducted a population-based study of 50,100 Chinese participants. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the impact of long-term conditions (LTCs) on all-cause mortality. Results The prevalence of multimorbidity was 31.35% and all-cause mortality was 8.01% (50,100 participants). In adjusted models, the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of all-cause mortality risk for those with 1, 2, and ≥ 3 LTCs compared with those with no LTCs was 1.45 (1.32–1.59), 1.72 (1.55–1.90), and 2.15 (1.85–2.50), respectively (Ptrend < 0.001). In the LTCs ≥2 category, the cluster of chronic diseases that included hypertension, diabetes, CHD, COPD, and stroke had the greatest impact on mortality. In the stratified model by age and sex, absolute all-cause mortality was higher among the ≥75 age group with an increasing number of LTCs. However, the relative effect size of the increasing number of LTCs on higher mortality risk was larger among those < 75 years. Conclusions The risk of all-cause mortality is increased with the number of multimorbidity among Chinese older adults, particularly disease clusters. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
