Introduction Chronic hepatitis B can lead to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, resulting in premature death. In addition to increased mortality from liver-related causes, chronic hepatitis B has been associated with premature mortality and elevated mortality rates from all causes.1-4 Elevated mortal...

Untreated, between 15% and 42% of infected persons resolve infection2-4; about half of those chronically infected develop progressive liver disease, which may include cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.5,6 Approximately 18 000 people died in 2016 because of HCV infection.5-7 Historically, ...
No differences were observed in age or cause of cirrhosis. HAV vaccination indicated in 6.7% of patients (IgG anti-HVA-negative) was greater among patients with negative HBV markers (9.3% vs 3.3%, P = .018) and younger patients (25.3% of patients </=45 years). In conclusion, there ...

[1]. Most people infected with HCV either are asymptomatic or have mild nonspecific symptoms, while others develop chronic infection and complications, including cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), potentially leading to premature death [2,3]. The overall death rates among ...
HBV causes acute and chronic hepatitis B; chronic HBV infection puts more than 250 million virus carriers at a greatly increased risk to develop terminal liver disease, i.e., liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) [1]. While an effective prophylact...

Liver cirrhosis was identified using ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes for cirrhosis and hepatic events at or before baseline (Table S1). The use of single ICD-9-CM codes for diagnosis was found to be 99% accurate when referenced to clinical, laboratory, imaging, and endoscopy results from electronic...
