非传染性疾病，主要是心脏病、中风、癌症、糖尿病和慢性呼吸道疾病，是一场全球危机，需要全球应对。尽管人类发展受到威胁，而且有负担得起、成本效益高和可行的干预措施，但大多数国家、发展机构和基金会都忽视了这场危机。2011年9月的联合国非传染性疾病高级别会议（UN HLM）是一个机会，可以促进对非传染性疾病采取与其健康和经济负担相称的协调一致的全球对策。为了实现联合国高级别会议的承诺，必须解决几个问题。在本报告中，我们通过回答四个问题来介绍现实情况：是否真的存在非传染性疾病的全球危机;非传染性疾病如何成为一个发展问题;是否存在负担得起和具有成本效益的干预措施;以及我们是否真的需要高级别领导和问责制？防治非传染性疾病的行动将支持其他全球卫生和发展优先事项。联合国高级别会议的成功结果取决于出席会议的国家元首和政府首脑，以及批准和执行行动承诺。长期的成功需要国家和国际领导人的鼓舞和承诺。
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), principally heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, and chronic respiratory diseases, are a global crisis and require a global response. Despite the threat to human development, and the availability of affordable, cost-effective, and feasible interventions, most countries, development agencies, and foundations neglect the crisis. The UN High-Level Meeting (UN HLM) on NCDs in September, 2011, is an opportunity to stimulate a coordinated global response to NCDs that is commensurate with their health and economic burdens. To achieve the promise of the UN HLM, several questions must be addressed. In this report, we present the realities of the situation by answering four questions: is there really a global crisis of NCDs; how is NCD a development issue; are affordable and cost-effective interventions available; and do we really need high-level leadership and accountability? Action against NCDs will support other global health and development priorities. A successful outcome of the UN HLM depends on the heads of states and governments attending the meeting, and endorsing and implementing the commitments to action. Long-term success requires inspired and committed national and international leadership.
