Drivers of Hospitalizations and Mortality Related to Complications of CLD

Annual Incidence Trend Prevalence (Trend) Relative Risk (Trend) PAF Prevention (efficacy/ effectiveness) Treatment (efficacy/ effectiveness)

HCV Declined but recent outbreaks 1%–2% (declining) 20 (declining) 20%–30% ++/++ +++/++
HBV Declining 0.5% (declining) 20 (declining) 5%–10% +++/++ ++/++
Alcoholic liver disease Rising 5%–10% (stable) 2 (stable/ increasing) 20%–30% ++/+ ++/+
NAFLD Rising 10%–30% (increasing) 1.5–2.0 (increasing) 25%–35% −/− +/−

CLD, chronic liver disease; HBV, hepatitis B virus; HCV, hepatitis C virus; NAFLD, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease; PAF, population-attributable fraction.
