Popis: Background: Comorbidity is an important prognostic marker and a treatment indicator for lung cancer patients. Register-based studies often describe the burden of comorbidity by the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) based on hospital discharge data. We assessed the association between somatic and psychiatric comorbidity and death within one year in early lung cancer and, furthermore, the burden of comorbidity according to treatment type. Material and methods: We conducted a population-based matched case-control study of stage I lung cancer identifying all treated patients who died (all-cause) within one year after diagnosis (early death group, cases). On the basis of data from the Danish Lung Cancer Registry these patients were then matched with two controls who survived more than one year (survivors). Through a review of the medical records, we validated inclusion criteria and collected data on somatic and psychiatric comorbidity. We assessed the association between comorbidity and early death with multivariate conditional logistic regression. Results: We included 221 cases and 410 controls. The mean CCI score in the early death group was 2.3 vs. 1.3 in the survivor group (p
