Abstract
Projections on liver diseases mortality can provide a basis for evaluating the World Health Organization's "25 by 25" goal and can help healthcare systems design appropriate control strategies. This study evaluated whether the 25 by 25 goal can be achieved in Taiwan and discussed possible future control strategies.
