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

  • Parents who have had pyloric stenosis have a 10-20% chance of having a child who also has pyloric stenosis.
  • In identical twins, if one develops this condition, 80-90% of the time the other twin will also develop pyloric stenosis
