Abstract
Patients with Rheumatic diseases (RDs) are at an increased risk of malignancies compared with the general population. The aim of this study was to examine the relative frequency of several cancers in a single homogeneous cohort of patients with different RDs. Patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Ankylosing spondylitis (AS), Sjögren's syndrome (SS), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), systemic sclerosis (SSc), dermatomyositis (DM), or polymyositis were included. Out of 3982 adult residents admitted to the division of rheumatology, 61 malignancies were observed. The 2009 National Central Cancer Registry (NCCR) of China served as the reference for calculating standardized ratio (SR). The malignancy frequency had no difference between RDs with malignancy and the general population. Patients with SS and DM/PM showed an increased risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (SR for SS patients = 9.709, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 4.602 to 17.916; SR for DM/PM = 35.714, 95% CI = 25.001 to 49.527). Patients with DM/PM and SSc showed an increased risk of lung cancer (SR for DM/PM = 10.638, 95% CI = 5.245 to 19.131; SR for SSc patients = 7.752, 95% CI = 3.295 to 15.309). Patients with SS and DM/PM showed an increased risk of ovary can...Continue Reading
