A significant body of research focuses on lifestyle as a primary driver of preventive health. For instance, reviews examine current guidelines for physical activity, defining recommendations for physical activity in the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) by reviewing current guidelines and recommendations for physical activity in primary prevention. This work emphasizes the critical role of regular physical activity in reducing CVD risk factors and highlights the need for tailored interventions to promote exercise adherence across diverse populations [1]. Other studies synthesize evidence on healthy dietary patterns, examining the association between healthy dietary patterns and the risk of cardiovascular disease, demonstrating that adhering to healthy eating patterns significantly lowers the risk of CVD, reinforcing nutrition as a cornerstone of preventive health based on systematic reviews of prospective cohort studies [4]. Additionally, an umbrella review clarifies the relationship between sleep duration and various health outcomes, underscoring that both insufficient and excessive sleep are associated with increased risks for chronic diseases, including cardiovascular issues, metabolic disorders, and mental health problems, highlighting the importance of optimal sleep for preventative health [6].
Public health concerns also feature prominently, especially regarding systemic challenges. One systematic review and meta-analysis investigates the profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on routine immunization programs globally, highlighting significant disruptions in vaccine coverage and identifying key factors contributing to these declines, emphasizing the urgent need for recovery strategies to prevent outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases [2]. Reviews also consolidate evidence on the role of environmental risk factors in the development of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), identifying various pollutants and exposures that contribute significantly to the global burden of NCDs and advocating for stronger environmental policies and interventions as critical components of preventive health strategies [7]. Moreover, interventions aimed at addressing social determinants of health (SDOH) are investigated to improve health equity, highlighting the effectiveness of various multi-sectoral approaches in reducing health disparities. This emphasizes that comprehensive preventive strategies must integrate efforts to tackle socio-economic, environmental, and structural factors influencing health [9].
Beyond physical health, mental well-being and advanced diagnostics form key areas of focus. An updated systematic review and meta-analysis evaluate the effectiveness of universal school-based mental health interventions for children and adolescents, confirming the positive impact of these programs on improving mental health outcomes and reducing symptoms of distress, underscoring their potential as a crucial strategy for early prevention [3]. Furthermore, other systematic reviews evaluate the clinical utility of novel multi-cancer early detection (MCED) blood tests, examining their potential to revolutionize cancer screening, discussing the current state of evidence, challenges, and future directions for integrating these tests into preventative health strategies to detect cancers at earlier, more treatable stages [5].
The modernization of healthcare through technology and refined care models is also a prominent theme. A systematic review and meta-analysis assess the effectiveness of digital health interventions in preventing type 2 diabetes. It concludes that these interventions, utilizing mobile apps, online platforms, and wearable devices, can significantly improve glycemic control and reduce risk factors, positioning them as valuable tools in modern preventive care [8]. Moreover, innovations within primary care settings aimed at enhancing chronic disease prevention and management are explored through a scoping review, identifying promising models, including team-based care, technology integration, and patient-centered approaches, highlighting how primary care can be optimized to deliver more effective and proactive preventive health services [10].
This collection of extensive reviews underscores the multifaceted nature of preventive health and chronic disease management, highlighting a range of interventions and considerations. Lifestyle factors play a paramount role, with current guidelines emphasizing regular physical activity and healthy dietary patterns as crucial in mitigating cardiovascular disease risk [1, 4]. Optimal sleep duration is similarly vital, as both insufficient and excessive sleep are linked to heightened risks for chronic diseases, including metabolic and mental health issues [6]. Broader public health initiatives are equally important, as evidenced by the profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on routine immunization programs, which necessitates urgent, targeted recovery strategies to prevent widespread outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases [2]. Environmental risk factors significantly contribute to the global burden of non-communicable diseases, advocating for robust environmental policies and interventions [7]. Moreover, addressing the social determinants of health through comprehensive, multi-sectoral interventions is crucial for improving health equity and reducing pervasive health disparities [9]. Focusing on specific health areas, universal school-based mental health interventions have shown a clear positive impact on improving mental well-being and reducing distress among children and adolescents, confirming their value as early prevention strategies [3]. Emerging technologies are also revolutionizing detection and prevention; novel multi-cancer early detection blood tests hold immense potential for earlier cancer diagnosis [5], and digital health interventions, leveraging mobile apps and wearable devices, are proving effective in preventing type 2 diabetes by improving glycemic control [8]. Finally, strategic innovations within primary care settings, encompassing team-based care and technology integration, are optimizing the delivery of proactive and effective preventive health services [10].
