Preventing Chronic Disease is a peer-reviewed open access medical journal established by the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion ( Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), covering research on all aspects of chronic diseases.

The PCD Collections are articles grouped together that feature a common theme. One example involved publication of articles on Aboriginal populations with the Public Health Agency of Canada journal Chronic Diseases in Canada in 2010. [1] Other collections have focused on veteran's health, community health, and healthy aging. [2]

According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal had a 2014 impact factor of 2.123. [3]
