The long-term impact of alcohol-related public health policies (PHP) on the burden of liver disease is unclear. This study aimed to assess the association between alcohol-related PHP and alcohol-related health consequences; 2. To develop an instrument to quantify the establishment of alcohol-related PHP in each country. We performed an ecological multi-national study including 169 countries. We recorded socio-demographic data and the presence of alcohol-related PHP in each country from the WHO Global Information System of Alcohol and Health (GISAH) in 2010. Data on alcohol-related health consequences was collected from the Global Burden of Disease database (between 2010-2019). We classified the WHO categories into five domains to design an instrument with criteria for a low, moderate, and strong establishment of PHP. We estimated an incidence rate ratio (IRR) using multilevel generalized linear models with a Poisson family distribution. The models were adjusted by population size, age structure, and gross domestic product. We also estimated a preparedness index using multiple correspondence analysis. The table summarizes the final instrument. We included 169 countries; the median preparedness index was 54 34.9-76.8. The preparedness index was associated with lower alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) mortality (IRR:0.25, 95%CI: 0.06-1.09, p=0.064), cancer mortality (IRR:0.22, 95%CI: 0.05-0.97, p=0.046), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) mortality (IRR:0.20, 95%CI: 0.04-0.95, p=0.043), and cardiovascular mortality (IRR:0.15, 95%CI: 0.04-0.61, p=0.008). There was also a trend to lower alcohol use disorder prevalence (IRR:0.25, 95%CI: 0.06-1.09, p=0.064). The highest linear associations were observed in the Americas and Africa, while Europe exhibits a nonlinear association. The preparedness index on alcohol policies is a valuable instrument to assess the establishment and strength of PHP. Those countries with a higher number of PHP had lower mortality due to ALD, cancer, HCC, and cardiovascular diseases. Our results strongly encourage the development and implementation of PHP on alcohol consumption worldwide.
