Multimorbidity clusters in patients with chronic obstructive airway diseases in the EpiChron Cohort

Abstract Chronic obstructive airway diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, rhinitis, and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are amongst the most common treatable and preventable chronic conditions with high morbidity burden and mortality risk. We aimed to explore the exist...
