Screening Objectives To determine HBV carrier rate for different AAPI subgroups To determine HBV susceptible rate To survey HBV risk factors in AAPI To provide hepatitis B education and referral for immunization and treatment

Hepatitis B Screening Results Among Different Ethnic Groups

SAS Statistical Significant Factors (N=1019) (Dependent Variable: HBsAg+) > Ind Variables N Cases Order Imp Odds Ratio P Value Estimate Age No Hep.Shot Age IV Drug Use Male Chinese Relatives C = SAS Statistical Significant Factors (N=1019) (Dependent Variable: HBsAg+) >

Summary of Findings 10% of clients screened were Hepatitis B antigen positive, which varied btwn AAPI subgroups. Married clients have higher carrier rates (10.3%) than unmarried clients (8.2%). Males (13%) are twice as likely to be infected with HBV as females (7%). The age group most at risk for chronic HBV infection is 18 to 45 years for this group

Summary of Findings (Cont.) Those who receive the hep. B vaccine series are less likely to be infected with HBV Immigrants from China are more likely to have chronic hepatitis B infection than other ethnic groups screened. Having a family member with liver disease and IV drug use are also statistically significant risk factors for hepatitis B infection.

Research Limitation -Self reported data – Convenient sampling, not random selection – Missing data – Small population size in some communities (eg. Lao)
