"Purpose
To examine multimorbidity prevalence by race/ethnicity and unique health disparities for Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islanders (NHPI). Design Cross-sectional study. Setting This study uses combined data from the 2014 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) and the 2014 NHPI-NHIS. Sample 38,965 adults, including a representative sample of 2,026 NHPIs. Measures Self-reported diagnoses of ten chronic conditions and race/ethnicity, including Non-Hispanic (NH) Whites, NH Blacks, NH Asians, NH NHPIs, Hispanics and NH Mixed Race. Covariates include age, sex, marital status, education, family income, and employment status. Analysis We used multinomial logistic regression models to evaluate the adjusted association between race/ethnicity and number of chronic conditions: none, 1, and ≥ 2 (multimorbidity). Results Compared to Whites, Asians and Hispanics (aRRR = 0.39, P Conclusion Our findings highlight significantly higher risk of multimorbidity for NHPIs relative to Whites as well as Asians. This underscores the importance of disaggregating NHPI data from Asians as a whole. Future studies should incorporate additional social factors relevant to the NHPI community." |
