China is one of the most severely affected countries, with the highest number of HCV infections globally [4].
In recent years, the global epidemic trend of HCV has garnered significant attention [5]. Hepatitis C is primarily transmitted through blood contact and is associated with severe complications, including cirrhosis and liver cancer [6]. The prevalence and distribution of various HCV genotypes vary across different regions [7].

Natural Language Processing for Identification of Hospitalized People Who Use Drugs: Cohort Study
Some researchers have used the hepatitis C virus (HCV) codes as a marker of drug use, although there are a substantial number of people with HCV who do not currently use drugs or have ever used drugs [16,17].
The barrier to identifying PWUD can potentially be addressed with natural language processing (NLP), to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for interpretation of the written text in a context-relevant manner [18].

Most hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections extend beyond the first 6 months (acute phase) and become chronic infections [1]. An estimated 50 million people have chronic HCV infections globally [2]. Every year, 1 million people acquire new chronic HCV infections [2].
Major clinical complications of chronic HCV infection include cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (primary liver cancer), and death resulting from the complications [3].

This study also identified two significant risk factors for HCV infection: having a family member positive for HCV and the use of intravenous medication in the past 5 years [10]. These efforts underscore the complexity of the hepatitis epidemic in Cambodia and the multifaceted approach required to address it.

Existing literature available for HCV education is focused on the comanagement of opioid use disorders and do not provide targeted information on general HCV treatment and cure [17-19]. In response to these gaps as well as needs assessment and feedback from multidisciplinary stakeholders, we developed an app to address the lack of HCV educational resources available to patients and health care supportive staff. The app guides the user through the HCV treatment stages in a self-exploratory way.

Additionally, people with OUD have high hepatitis C virus (HCV) incidence and prevalence due to injection drug use and limited access to HCV therapy [3]. To achieve HCV elimination by 2030, as proposed in several jurisdictions [4-6], HCV treatment access must increase.
We sought to address restricted HCV care access for people with OUD through a randomized controlled trial of care integration using technology that is at the intersection of the internet or videoconferencing, and health care.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and syphilis infection are also all major public health problems worldwide. HBV, HCV, and syphilis are the 3 most common infections among people living with HIV/AIDS all over the world and share similar transmission routes [2,3]. The burden of HBV, HCV, and syphilis infection in people living with HIV/AIDS is even larger than in the general population. The ever-increasing burden of these infections has become a growing concern [4].

However, there is a lack of information about HCV testing behavior and willingness to undergo HCV screening in the general Chinese population.
This study was conducted to assess HCV knowledge, self-reported HCV testing behavior, and willingness to undergo HCV screening in the general Chinese population to inform policy decision-making aimed at eliminating HCV. The characteristics of patients who have less knowledge and are less likely to undergo testing were also explored.

HCV can be transmitted during pregnancy or delivery—an estimated 5.8% of infants born to women with HCV infection become infected [4]. Perinatal infection can result in liver disease during adulthood and sequelae such as cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma [5]. The incidence of acute HCV infection in the United States increased annually from 2009 to 2019, with rates highest among adults 20-29 and 30-39 years of age, including women of childbearing age [6,7].

Infections such as hepatitis C (HCV) and HIV disproportionally affect people who inject drugs. Globally, over half of people who inject drugs are infected with HCV, and nearly 1 in 5 with HIV [1-5]. Many people who inject drugs are unaware of their HCV or HIV status, and rates of accessing treatment are low. For instance, fewer than 10% of those infected with HCV receive treatment [6], increasing morbidity and contributing to ongoing virus spread [7].
