Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Lancet Primary Care focuses on primary care's role in health systems, including its functions, redesign, and performance. It examines population expectations of primary care quality and the impact of antihypertensive therapy on adverse events in specific patient subgroups. The journal also addresses the use of patient-reported measures to assess and improve care quality, and the management of non-communicable diseases and type 2 diabetes within primary care settings. Furthermore, it explores the integration of palliative care into primary health care and the challenges and opportunities in strengthening primary care in regions like Sub-Saharan Africa and the WHO African region. The scope also includes the feasibility of AI-based screening for conditions like glaucoma within primary care.
