The need for complete population‐based studies on the etiology of liver disease

Abstract

I read Kim et al.'s "Changing Trends in Etiology‐ and Ethnicity‐Based Annual Mortality Rates of Cirrhosis and Hepatocellular Carcinoma in the US"⁽¹⁾ with great interest. Patterns for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are complex, with disparities likely rooted in etiological differences. Addressing the increasing burden of HCC is urgent. Precisely for this reason, I feel compelled to respectfully share three concerns with Kim et al.'s research.
