Ethnicity â Although Crohnâs disease can affect any ethnic group, Caucasians and people of Eastern European (Ashkenazi) Jewish descent have the highest risk. American Jewish people of European descent are four to five times more likely to develop IBD than the general population.
Specific to Individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish Ancestry. For years it has been known that pancreatic cancer is more common in Jews than in the general population (1-5).This increased risk is greater in Ashkenazi Jews (those of European origin) than it is in Sephardic Jews (those of Asian or African descent) (6).f you are of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry and have pancreatic cancer or a family history of pancreatic cancer, please consider participating in one of our research studies.
