Correction to: Racial Disparities in Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma in the United States: An Update (Digestive Diseases and Sciences, (2023), 68, 10, (4050-4059), 10.1007/s10620-023-08084-z)

The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake in Discussion and Conclusion paragraph. The corrected details are given below. On page 4057 under Discussion section (left side, first paragraph): “We investigated racial disparities among individuals undergoing LT for the treatment of HCC. We found when compared to Whites, Blacks, and other races were 54% and 60% respectively less likely to undergo LT for HCC, and there was no significant difference between Whites and Hispanics.” should read as “We investigated racial disparities among individuals undergoing LT for the treatment of HCC. We found when compared to Whites, Blacks were 40% less likely to undergo LT for HCC, and there was no significant difference between Whites and both Hispanics and other races.” On page 4057 under Discussion section (right side, second paragraph): “Our study highlighted the racial disparity in the access to LT between U.S. regions; Blacks were unanimously found to undergo less LT across all regions of the USA in comparison to whites. However, in the southern regions of the U.S., the differences between Blacks and other races (including Whites and Hispanics) are minimized by almost 50% (from around 50% less likely to 27% less likely).” should read as “Our study highlighted the racial disparity in the access to LT between U.S. regions; Blacks were unanimously found to undergo less LT across most regions of the USA in comparison to whites. However, in the southern regions of the U.S., the differences between Blacks and other races (including Whites and Hispanics) are minimized by almost 50% (from around 50% less likely to 27% less likely).” On page 4058 under Discussion section (left side, second paragraph): “In conclusion, individuals identifying as Blacks and other races were less likely to undergo LT for HCC, and this difference remained across U.S. regions. Hispanics, however, have a similar likelihood of LT when compared to Whites, and higher chances of LT in the South. Having lower incomes is also associated with a reduced likelihood of LT. Blacks also tend to have increased in-hospital mortality, sepsis, and AKI, with no change in transplant-specific complications.” Should read as “In conclusion, individuals identifying as Blacks were less likely to undergo LT for HCC, and this difference remained across most U.S. regions.
