Data-driven approaches have been suggested for overcoming methodological challenges, of multimorbidity research. By using exploratory factor analysis, this study aimed to identify sex specific lifestyle associative multimorbidity patterns, providing valuable evidence to primary care providers and informing future multimorbidity guidelines. Methods: A retrospective observational study examined the electronic health records of three general practices in the UK between 2015 and 2018. The participants were aged 18+ with lifestyle multimorbidity, having engaged with multiple health risk behaviours. Stratified exploratory factor analysis with oblique rotation was used to identify sex specific lifestyle associative multimorbidity patterns. Results: The study included N = 7560 patients, with females comprising 53.9%. Eight independent lifestyle associative multimorbidity patterns were identified and distributed as follows. For females, three patterns emerged: cardiometabolic\u2013neurovascular spectrum disorders (42.97% variance), respiratory conditions (8.08%), and sensory impairment (5.63%), with 25.4% assigned to these patterns. For males, five patterns were revealed: cardiometabolic\u2013vascular spectrum disorders (34.10%), genitourinary (9.19%), respiratory\u2013vision (8.20%), ocular (5.70%), and neurovascular\u2013gastro\u2013renal syndrome (4.54%), with 43%. Conclusions: We revealed eight different sex-specific lifestyle-associated patterns, implying the need for tailored clinical approaches. The application of exploratory factor analysis yielded clinically valuable and scientifically rigorous multimorbidity patterns. Clinically, the findings advocate for a paradigm shift towards person-centred care, integrating multimorbidity and SNAP multibehaviours to enhance the complexity of inquiry and treatment of high-risk populations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph22040485","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,24]],"date-time":"2025-03-24T13:48:20Z","timestamp":1742824100000},"page":"485","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Sex-Specific Multimorbidity\u2013Multibehaviour Patterns in Primary Care Populations"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7217-9626","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Konstantinos","family":"Spyropoulos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Health and Development (CHAD), University of Staffordshire, Stoke-on-Trent ST4 2DF, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Naomi J.","family":"Ellis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Health and Development (CHAD), University of Staffordshire, Stoke-on-Trent ST4 2DF, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4990-4572","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christopher J.","family":"Gidlow","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, Keele University, University Road, Staffordshire ST5 5BG, UK"},{"name":"Research and Innovation Department, Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust (MPFT), St Georges Hospital, Corporation Street, Stafford ST16 3AG, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"624","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mayocp.2015.02.006","article-title":"Health-Enhancing Multibehavior and Medical Multimorbidity","volume":"90","author":"Loprinzi","year":"2015","journal-title":"Mayo Clin.
