This age and gender pattern is similar to prior studies of cryptogenic cirrhosis in other regions (Fig. 1).1,2,32,33 Although there is some diversity in the data presented in this report, we found that obesity and Type 2 diabetes were the most prevalent risk factors in cryptogenic cirrhosis.
Are Bed Bugs Contagious? Bed bugs are not contagious; they are insects, not an illness. However, bed bug infestations can spread from place to place easily and by many methods. Bed bugs are often found in hotel rooms; if you travel regularly, you are at an increased risk of developing a bed bug infestation. Bed bugs can crawl into luggage and be carried home.
Bed bugs are not known to spread disease. Bed bugs can be an annoyance because their presence may cause itching and loss of sleep. Sometimes the itching can lead to excessive scratching that can sometimes increase the chance of a secondary skin infection.ed bugs are usually transported from place to place as people travel. The bed bugs travel in the seams and folds of luggage, overnight bags, folded clothes, bedding, furniture, and anywhere else where they can hide.
