摘要
The epidemiology of cirrhosis among immigrants to North America has not been described. Using population-level data from Ontario, Canada, recent immigrant and refugees with incident cirrhosis were identified and stratified by World Bank region of origin and cirrhosis etiology. Incidence rates were described based on region of origin and etiology and compared with those in Canadian-born/long-term residents. A total of 25,054 immigrants/refugees were identified with rates of cirrhosis lower compared with those in Canadian-born/long-term residents for all etiologies except hepatitis B virus likely explained by the healthy immigrant effect. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease was the most common etiology of cirrhosis among immigrants and refugees.
