October is Liver Cancer Awareness Month, a critical time to raise awareness about one of the most common and deadly cancers affecting Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities.

🌏 Why this matters for AANHPI communities
Liver cancer rates are 2–3 times higher in many Asian populations compared to other groups in the U.S.
A major reason: chronic Hepatitis B (HBV) — which is often underdiagnosed and can remain silent for years.

📊 Key facts:
Asian Americans make up over 50% of chronic Hepatitis B cases in the U.S.
Chronic HBV significantly increases the risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer
Many individuals are unaware they are infected
Liver cancer is often diagnosed at later stages

⚠️ Risk factors include:
Chronic Hepatitis B or C
Family history of liver disease
Heavy alcohol use
Fatty liver disease

🩺 What you can do:
✔ Get screened for Hepatitis B at least once
✔ Get vaccinated if not immune
✔ Follow up with regular liver monitoring if diagnosed
✔ Maintain a healthy diet and limit alcohol
✔ Encourage family members to get tested

💬 Why early detection matters
Liver cancer is preventable and treatable when caught early — but awareness is key.
As PAs, we are committed to improving screening, education, and culturally responsive care to better serve our communities.

🗣️ Words Matter.

PAAH is proud to highlight “Words Matter: Promoting Inclusive Language and Reducing Microaggressions in Clinical Practice,” a new white paper co-authored by Nguyen H. Park, DMSc, MS, PA-C, DFAAPA, alongside Katie Ganser, MS, MPAS, and Nathan M. Rothchild, DMSc, MPAS, PA-C.

The white paper explores how language shapes patient experiences, communication, clinical decision-making, and health equity—and offers practical strategies for using more inclusive, patient-centered language in clinical practice.

📖 Read the full white paper and join the conversation on how intentional language can help create more respectful, equitable healthcare environments.
