Per general style guide, we translate acronyms the first time is mentioned on files we work on. Most acronyms used in English do not have equivalents in Spanish, but sometimes there a few acronyms with equivalents in Spanish and the description “por sus siglas en inglés” is not needed.
Examples:
1. ST: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
