In this report, we project the prevalence of chronic liver disease over the next two decades by incorporating information on historic trends of the prevalence of chronic liver disease, alongside projected changes in the Scottish population. The SBoD 2019 study found chronic liver disease was the 17th leading cause of disease burden in Scotland, with an estimated 34,346 disability-adjusted life years (DALYs). Chronic liver disease exhibits sizeable absolute and relative inequalities, with 63% of DALYs estimated to be attributable to inequalities in multiple deprivation.
