Cardiovascular comorbidities in Chinese inpatients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders.

ABSTRACT: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of premature mortality in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs). However, the detailed categorization of these conditions remains insufficiently explored. This study aims to identify CVDs comorbidity patterns among inpatients with SSDs and to investigate associated factors. Electronic medical records (EMRs) data from three neuropsychiatric hospitals (2015-2023) in China was conducted. Comorbidity patterns were revealed through latent class analysis (LCA), and multinomial logit analysis were utilized to evaluate the effect of factors on these patterns, calculating odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Among the 2830 inpatients with SSD, four distinct comorbidity patterns were identified based on their domin
