Abstract
Primary healthcare is one of the most important components of the health system worldwide, facilitating people's access to essential healthcare, especially vulnerable groups. Integrating nutrition services into a primary healthcare (PHC) network is critical for effective health promotion. We investigated nutrition services provided through PHC in high-income and low- and middle-income countries. In this scoping review, we examined 37 studies that involved nutrition care at PHC, indexed by PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Sid. Nutritional services provided at the PHC level mainly included nutritional assessment, nutrition counseling and education, child and maternal nutritional care, provided by healthcare workers, nurses, physicians, and dietitians. Nutrition services provided by health systems varied by the degree of diet- and nutrition-related problems, such as diabetes and obesity, as well as maternal and newborn health, and the level of income and development of the countries.
初级卫生保健是世界卫生系统最重要的组成部分之一，促进人们，特别是弱势群体获得基本卫生保健。将营养服务纳入初级卫生保健网络对于有效促进健康至关重要。我们调查了高收入国家和中低收入国家通过初级保健提供的营养服务。在这篇范围综述中，我们检查了37项涉及PHC营养护理的研究，这些研究被PubMed、MEDLINE、Web of Science、Scopus、b谷歌Scholar和Sid索引。初级保健一级提供的营养服务主要包括由保健工作者、护士、医生和营养师提供的营养评估、营养咨询和教育、儿童和孕产妇营养保健。卫生系统提供的营养服务因与饮食和营养有关的问题（如糖尿病和肥胖）以及孕产妇和新生儿健康的程度以及各国的收入和发展水平而异。
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Public Health Policy (JPHP) will continue its 35 year tradition: an accessible source of scholarly articles on the epidemiologic and social foundations of public health policy, rigorously edited, and progressive.
JPHP aims to create a more inclusive public health policy dialogue, within nations and among them. It broadens public health policy debates beyond the ''health system'' to examine all forces and environments that impinge on the health of populations. It provides an exciting platform for airing controversy and framing policy debates - honing policies to solve new problems and unresolved old ones.
JPHP welcomes unsolicited original scientific and policy contributions on all public health topics. New authors are particularly encouraged to enter debates about how to improve the health of populations and reduce health disparities.
