Core Tip	We explore the influence of genetic and environmental factors that may participate in the clinical outcome of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection among the Latin American population. Such features may be of interest to clinicians and scientists in the field of hepatology because this population differs importantly from others worldwide. A novel genomic medicine approach is required to implement new strategies for the prevention, management and treatment of HBV infection.
