Sociodemographic inequalities in multimorbidity and lifestyle risk factors among young adults: a national population-based study
Sociodemographic factors such as age, gender, education, marital status, health insurance, and region were associated to multimorbidity and the co-occurrence of multiple behavioral risk factors. These disparities highlight the need for policies to reduce modifiable risk factors and promote equitable healthcare access, especially for socioeconomically disadvantaged groups.
