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 most potent risk factor in the development of alcoholic liver disease is the quantity and frequency of alcohol consumption. Other risk factors include gender, age, and genetic factors.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
