Clinical profiles of SS-ILD compared with SS-NILD in a Chinese population: a retrospective analysis of 735 patients by Ting Guo, Yaomei Long, Qinxue Shen, Wei Guo, Wang Duan, Xiaoli Ouyang, Hong Peng

“…NSIP (56.3%) was the most frequent HRCT pattern. Compared with pSS patients with ILD (pSS-ILD) patients, sSS patients with ILD (sSS-ILD) patients had a higher incidence of proteinuria (p < .001) and hypercreatinaemia (p = .013), a higher level of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (p = .003), low levels of complement 3 (C3) (p = .013), lymphocytes (p = .009) and leukocytes (p = .024), and worse DLCO (%Pred) (p = .035).Conclusions ILD is a common pulmonary involvement in both pSS patients and sSS patients. …”
