Within a subgroup of individuals with no pre-existing physical conditions, we compared individuals with and without a history of severe mental illness (schizophrenia-spectrum or bipolar disorder). With a denominator of person-years, we calculated the incidence of different thresholds of physical multimorbidity using adjusted Fine-Gray subdistribution hazard ratios.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among the 3310 individuals with severe mental illness, 298 developed physical multimorbidity (two chronic physical conditions) across 21893 person-years, compared to 52 among the 2850 individuals and 18,112 person-years in the comparison group. When adjusted for clinical and demographic covariates, people with severe mental illness had an increased risk of developing one (subdistribution hazard ratio\u2009=\u20093.36; 95% confidence interval\u2009=\u20092.79, 4.03), two (subdistribution hazard ratio\u2009=\u20094.06; 95% confidence interval\u2009=\u20093.02, 5.46), three (subdistribution hazard ratio\u2009=\u20095.36; 95% confidence interval\u2009=\u20093.35, 8.59), and four (subdistribution hazard ratio\u2009=\u20094.84; 95% confidence interval\u2009=\u20092.49, 9.40) chronic physical conditions. Except for malignancy and genitourinary disease, people with severe mental illness had increased incidence of chronic physical conditions in all other organ systems.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>People with severe mental illness experienced greater incidence rates of multimorbidity at various thresholds, with a majority of organ systems affected.
