Mental health had low mortality (5\u00b77 deaths) but high DALYs (1\u00b745 million), especially in younger people. Alcohol and inactivity had lower death counts and moderate DALY impacts. Most risks were more prevalent in deprived areas. NICE-recommended interventions such as smoking cessation, alcohol brief advice, obesity treatments, and psychological therapies, are relevant to millions, especially high-need groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>(Re-)investing in prevention and equitable strategies could substantially reduce disease burden and address inequalities, with the greatest gains likely to arise from sustained and targeted investment in populations and areas that have been left behind.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/pubmed\/fdag028","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,30]],"date-time":"2026-04-30T10:57:12Z","timestamp":1777546632000},"page":"512-519","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Quantifying the case for prevention: disease burden and cost-effective interventions in UK"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"48","author":[{"given":"Lesley","family":"Owen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Economics and Decision Modelling, Science, Evidence and Analytics Directorate, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence , 2 Redman Place, Stratford Cross, London, E20 1JQ ,","place":["UK"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matthew","family":"Taylor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"York Health Economics Consortium, University of York , Level 2, Enterprise House, Innovation Way, York, North Yorkshire, YO10 5NQ ,","place":["UK"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026060105173529200_ref1","volume-title":"Fit for the Future: The 10 Year Health Plan for England","author":"Department of Health and Social Care"},{"key":"2026060105173529200_ref2","volume-title":"Seattle","author":"Global Burden of Disease Collaborative Network (Editor)","year":"2024"},{"key":"2026060105173529200_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e036411","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2019-036411","article-title":"Is an ounce of prevention worth a pound of cure?
