This Australian study explored whether perceived stigma and satisfaction with received information and care were related to health\u2010related quality of life in people with chronic hepatitis <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">B<\/jats:styled-content> or <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">C<\/jats:styled-content>. A questionnaire was constructed comprising demographic questions and existing scales to measure the variables. The 77 participants were recruited through various online channels. The median age was 48\u2009years, 74% had hepatitis <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">C<\/jats:styled-content>, 60% were female, and 73% were <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">C<\/jats:styled-content>aucasian. Participants with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H<\/jats:styled-content>epatitis <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">B<\/jats:styled-content> reported substantially less perceived stigma than those with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H<\/jats:styled-content>epatitis <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">C<\/jats:styled-content>, but there was no significant difference between the two groups in health\u2010related quality of life. Participants with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H<\/jats:styled-content>epatitis <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">C<\/jats:styled-content> reported higher satisfaction with received information. The results highlight specific aspects to consider in the care of people with chronic hepatitis. For example, people with hepatitis <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">B<\/jats:styled-content> do not seem to enjoy better health\u2010related quality of life despite lower perceived stigmatization. Therefore, these patients may require other improvements in service delivery such as the provision of more culturally appropriate information and education about chronic hepatitis <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">B<\/jats:styled-content>.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/nhs.12009","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,22]],"date-time":"2012-11-22T09:07:14Z","timestamp":1353575234000},"page":"172-178","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Chronic hepatitis <scp>B<\/scp> and <scp>C<\/scp>: Exploring perceived stigma, disease information, and health\u2010related quality of life"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Yvonne Nelly","family":"Drazic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"James Cook University  Cairns Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marie Louise","family":"Caltabiano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"James Cook University  Cairns Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","volume-title":"Third National Hepatitis C Strategy 2010\u20132013","author":"Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing","year":"2010"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","volume-title":"National Hepatitis B Strategy 2010\u20132013","author":"Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing","year":"2010"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.330.7492.662"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1478-3231.2007.01558.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","volume-title":"Health Psychology: Biopsychosocial Interactions. 2nd Australasian Edition","author":"Caltabiano M","year":"2008"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","first-page":"23","article-title":"Recognising the role of infection: preventing liver cancer in special populations","volume":"36","author":"Carville KS","year":"2012","journal-title":"Cancer Forum"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1753-6405.2010.00634.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1753-6405.2010.00477.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","first-page":"36","article-title":"Preventing vertical hepatitis B transmission across all borders: a review of current concepts","volume":"2","author":"Daley GM","year":"2011","journal-title":"Aust.
