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
Common risk factors in the development of Waldenström macroglobulinemia include:[1]
- Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS):
- Pre-existing monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance is the most common risk factor, associated with 40 times more likelihood of developing Waldenström's macroglobulinemia.
- Hepatitis C:
- Patients with chronic hepatitis C infection have an overall 20-30% increased risk for developing non-Hodgkin lymohoma and 3-fold increased risk for WM.[4][5][6]
- Autoimmune Diseases:
- Allergic conditions:
- Hay fever is also known to be associated with increased risk of WM.
