Cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) among older adults in India
This study reveals a rising burden of CMM among middle-aged and older adults in India, with higher prevalence in females, urban residents, and wealthier groups. Regional and caste disparities highlight the need for targeted interventions. Effective management of CMM requires early screening and comprehensive primary care, especially as India ages and develops.
