Title：Explore the epidemiology for bullous pemphigoid
Abstract
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is the most common autoimmune blistering disease associated with substantial morbidity and mortality in the older adults. BP is accompanied by intense pain and pruritus, and can cause considerable disability. It not only causes a significant impact on quality of life of patient, but also give a huge burden to their family and medical care. We hope to explore the epidemiology of BP, and enrich the understanding of BP patients.
