Despite their high prevalence worldwide, steatotic liver diseases (SLDs) are largely excluded from most non-communicable disease (NCD) guidelines and strategies. We propose policies and strategies to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of reducing NCD premature mortality by one-third by 2030. To assess this gap-the exclusion of SLDs from NCD policies-in urban areas, we reviewed Barcelona's strategies for NCD risks (e.g., alcohol, tobacco, healthy food access). We then explored applications of geo-spatial visualisation and whole-of-society approaches (e.g., citizen science engagement) aligned with the World Health Organization (WHO) Best Buys to provide recommendations to address NCDs, generally, and SLDs specifically.
尽管脂肪性肝病(SLDs)在全球范围内普遍存在,但大多数非传染性疾病(NCD)指南和策略在很大程度上都将其排除在外。我们提出了政策和策略,以实现联合国可持续发展目标,即到2030年将非传染性疾病过早死亡率降低三分之一。为了评估城市地区非传染性疾病政策中对脂肪性肝病的这种排除差距,我们回顾了巴塞罗那应对非传染性疾病风险(如酒精、烟草、健康食品获取)的策略。然后,我们探索了与世界卫生组织(WHO)的最佳实践相一致的地理空间可视化和全社会方法(如公民科学参与)的应用,以提供针对一般非传染性疾病,特别是脂肪性肝病的应对建议。
