Overview
There are no established risk factors for [disease name].
OR
The most potent risk factor in the development of [disease name] is [risk factor 1]. Other risk factors include [risk factor 2], [risk factor 3], and [risk factor 4].
OR
Common risk factors in the development of [disease name] include [risk factor 1], [risk factor 2], [risk factor 3], and [risk factor 4].
OR
Common risk factors in the development of [disease name] may be occupational, environmental, genetic, and viral.
Risk Factors
The underlying cause of Behçet’s disease is not clear. It is suggested that the following factors may be associated with the disease:
- Genetic predisposition: Researches demonstrate that the presence of the gene HLA–B51 is a risk factor for Behçet's disease.[1][2]
- Age: Behçet's disease can affect people in any age, but the most common age is 20~30 years old.
- Gender: Behçet's disease most commonly affects men than women.
- Race: Behçet's disease is more common in Middle East and Japan then in other race. It is rare in America.[3]
