- W4360993417 abstract "Background: Chronic hepatitis B (HBV) prevalence is highest in foreign-born Asian and African individuals in the US, though Hispanics make up the largest proportion of the immigrant population. Differences in the diagnosis and management of chronic HBV in Hispanics might exist due to the lower awareness of risk. We aim to examine racial/ethnic disparities in the diagnosis, presentation, and immediate management of chronic HBV in a diverse safety net system enriched for Hispanics. Methods: In a large urban safety-net hospital system, we retrospectively identified patients with chronic HBV by serological data and categorized them into mutually exclusive self-identified racial/ethnic groups: Hispanics, Asians, Blacks, and Whites. We then examined differences in screening, disease phenotype and severity, follow-up testing, and referral by race/ethnicity. Results: Among 1063 patients, 302 (28%) were Hispanics, 569 (54%) Asians, 161 (15%) Blacks, and 31 (3%) Whites. More Hispanics (30%) were screened in the acute setting (defined as inpatient or emergency department encounters) than Asians (13%), Blacks (17%), or Whites (23%) (p<0.01). Hispanics also had lower rates of follow-up testing after HBV diagnosis than Asians including HBeAg status (43% vs. 60%, p<0.01) and HBV DNA levels (42% vs. 58%, p<0.01) and lower rates of linkage to specialty care (32% vs. 55%, p<0.01). Among those with available testing, however, the presence of immune-active chronic HBV was infrequent and similar across racial/ethnic groups. 25% of Hispanics had cirrhosis at initial presentation, proportionally higher than other groups (p<0.01). Conclusion: Our results underscore the importance of raising chronic HBV awareness and increasing both screening and linkage to care among Hispanic immigrants in addition to the existing risk groups, with the goal of mitigating downstream liver-related complications.
