Low and middle-income countries in Asia face significant disparities in scientific capacity and ability to influence public policy, which is likely to affect responses to future pandemics, climate change and technological advancements such as Artificial Intelligence, according to the International Network for Government Science Advice (INGSA).

I originally read the title as "it is more difficult to influence public policy in least-developed countries based on this study" but it appears it's actually "it is more difficult for scientists to advocate for science-backed policies in least-developed countries."
