Multimorbidity and its association with health-related quality of life among older adults in india: a cross-sectional analysis of LASI wave-1
This study found that multimorbidity significantly reduces HRQoL among older adults in India, with women, individuals of lower socioeconomic status, and those reporting poor self-rated health experiencing the most significant burden. These findings highlight the need for gender-sensitive, equity-focused public health strategies aimed at managing chronic conditions and improving quality of life among the ageing population in India.
