Abstract:
Objective:A novel grass-root community screening and management model of hepatitis B was developed in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment rate of hepatitis B in Guangzhou city.Methods:A three-tier collaborative framework[tertiary hospitals-center for disease control and prevention(CDC)-primary care clinics]implemented dual-track screening(fixed-site+mobile units)using rapid hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)testing and structured surveys. Digital closed-loop management integrated screening,referral,and follow-up. Data were analyzed via SPSS 26.0.Results:Among 30 012 community-dwelling adults screened(Male∶Female=1∶1.68),overall HBsAg positive rate was 5.21%(1 565/30 012),peaking in the 50-59-year cohort( χ2=271.80, P<0.001). Hepatitis B knowledge awareness was critically low(39.24%). Of 140 referred HBsAg-positive individuals,15 chronic carriers required no immediate antiviral therapy per guidelines. Treatment linkage surged from 32.8%(41/125)to 86.4%(108/125)post-intervention. aMAP hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)risk stratification(n=82)revealed low(36.6%),intermediate(32.9%),and high-risk(30.5%)profiles. Conclusions:This coordinated,digitally-enhanced strategy significantly improved hepatitis B detection and treatment access. However,persistent knowledge gaps underscore the imperative for targeted community education and adherence support.
