A box and whiskers plot showing the trend of incidence of viral hepatitis-related hepatocellular carcinoma between 1980 and 2019. Viral hepatitis-related hepatocellular incidence (blue box) increased over the study period covering 1980 to 2019. The incidence was 29.9/100,000person/year, 48.8/100,000persons/year, 55.3/100,000persons/year and 69.5/100,000person/year for the first (1980–1990), second (1991–2000), third (2001–2010) and the fourth (2011–2019) decades, respectively. The box represents the mean estimate (prevalence) and whiskers correspond to the error margin (3.2%) around the estimated mean
