WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC?: Pneumoconiosis, recognized as one of the most detrimental occupational diseases in China, exhibits a multimorbidity profile due to a plethora of comorbidities and complications. These factors significantly influence the treatment outcomes, progression, prognosis, and overall quality of life of the afflicted patients.
WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT?: The present study examined the prevalence and types of comorbidities, encompassing 13 common diseases or conditions, within cases of pneumoconiosis across 27 provincial-level administrative divisions (PLADs) in China. Distinctions in multimorbidity distribution by gender, urban . rural areas, stages of pneumoconiosis, and the smoking index were considered. Furthermore, the study investigated the patterns of multimorbidity.
WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE?: This study serves as a reference point for the formulation of treatment strategies and health policy development concerning pneumoconiosis in China.
