259 Background: According to the American Cancer Association, hepatitisB and Cinfections may raise liver cancer risk. We identify population-specific cancer-attributable hepatitis prevalence to discern disparities across race/ethnicity for liver cancer risk. Methods: Data from 1999-2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were used to determine prevalence, unadjusted odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) for non-Hispanic-Whites (NHW), non-Hispanic-Blacks (NHB), Mexican-Americans, other Hispanics, and other race of hepatitis, taking complex sampling design into account. Results: Among those sampled, the overall highest prevalence of hepatitis infection was 66.4% in NHW for hepatitis-C and the lowest prevalence was 1.4% in Mexican-Americans for hepatitis-B surface-antigen. NHB were more likely than NHW to have hepatitis-B infections of surface-antibody (OR=1.9; 95%CI=1.8-2.0), core-antibody (3.3; 3.1-3.6), surface-antigen (5.3; 3.6-7.7), and hepatitis-C infections (1.7; 1.5-2.0). Compared to NHW, other Hispanics had a higher burden of hepatitis-B infection of surface-antibody (1.5; 1.4-1.7) and core-antibody (2.5; 2.1-2.8); other race had the same higher infection pattern as other Hispanics in surface-antibody (2.4; 2.2-2.6) and core-antibody (6.7; 6.0-7.5). Surface-antibody was more prevalent (1.5; 1.4-1.6) while core-antibody was less prevalent (0.9; 0.8-0.9) among Mexican-Americans compared with NHW. Conclusions: The prevalence of hepatitis B and C infections varies across different race/ethnicities with NHB having the greatest burden compared with NHW. Population-based databases should collect more information regarding infection burden in at-risk groups in order to understand more about these disparities. Appreciating such gaps across demographics could assist in future efforts to decrease the burden of hepatitis and to provide a base for targeted liver cancer prevention programs via screening, vaccination, health promotion, and literacy.
