Data collection utilized a sociodemographic and clinical characteristics questionnaire and the Chinese version of the M.D. Anderson Symptom Inventory\u2010Multiple Myeloma Module (MDASI\u2010MM) scale. The research conducted a latent profile analysis of symptom characteristics, followed by univariate analysis and multivariable multinomial logistic regression to examine factors associated with profile membership.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The study included 265 Chinese patients with multiple myeloma. Latent profile analysis identified three distinct symptom profiles: \u201cLow Symptom Burden with Walking Distress\u201d (46.7%), \u201cModerate Physical Symptoms with Daily Life Interference\u201d (37.9%), and \u201cHigh Global Symptom Burden\u201d (15.4%). Multinomial logistic regression analysis demonstrated that age, marital status, combination chemotherapy status, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status were significantly associated with symptom profile membership (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.05). Specifically, patients of advanced age and those with higher ECOG scores were more likely to belong to the higher burden profiles, while patients receiving combination chemotherapy and those who were unmarried\/divorced\/widowed were more likely to belong to the low\u2010burden profile.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients with multiple myeloma exhibit heterogeneous symptom experiences, classifiable into three latent profiles.
