Overview

Epidemiology and Demographics

Developed Countries

DPB has the highest incidence among Japanese.[1][2][3] Korean,[4][5][6] Chinese[3][7] and Thai cases[8] have been reported as well. A genetic predisposition among East Asians is indicated,[9][5][6] with a lower worldwide prevalence of DPB still usually related to Asian ancestry.[10] However, rare cases of DPB, being those in the western world in individuals with non-Asian lineage,[11] have also been noted.[12][13][11]
