Abstract
This cross-sectional study revealed Dupuytren's disease in 7.0 % of 401 subjects among the general population of a mountain village in Japan. The prevalence is higher with age and is apparently associated with male gender, occupation and alcohol intake. Risk factors associated with Dupuytren's disease were identified as age, male gender, occupation, and alcohol consumption habits.
