WHA79 Resolution on Steatotic Liver Disease

The WHO resolution on steatotic liver disease recognizes the condition as a rapidly growing and under-recognized global health challenge closely linked to obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and other noncommunicable diseases. It calls on Member States to integrate steatotic liver disease into national NCD strategies, strengthen prevention and early detection through primary healthcare, address shared risk factors, improve surveillance and research, and expand equitable access to care through integrated health system responses.
