Higher Mortality Risk From Ovarian Carcinomas, Small Bowel Neoplasms, and B-Cell and Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphomas in Sjögren Syndrome Patients.
Article in Journal of clinical rheumatology : practical reports on rheumatic & musculoskeletal diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo evaluate the impact of the different types of neoplasms and lineages on Sjögren syndrome (SjS) patient mortality.
methodsMedical records review study based on the Spanish Hospital Discharge Database and the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification coding list. The neoplasm-related deaths in SjS patients with the general population during the period 2016-2019 were compared. A binary logistic regression analysis considering age, sex, tobacco use, and alcohol use was performed to determine the impact of SjS on the risk of dying from each neoplasm group and lineage.
resultsIn the period studied, 705,557 in-hospital deaths were certified in Spain, 139,531 (19.8%) from neoplasms. Neoplasms surpassed SjS activity as a cause of mortality in primary SjS patients (11.3% vs. 1.6%, p < 0.001). SjS patients presented higher mortality rates from small bowel carcinoma (0.3% vs. 1.8%; odds ratio [OR], 5.41; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.33-22) and gynecological neoplasms (6.4% vs. 3%; OR, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.01-4.58), related to ovarian carcinomas (4.6% vs. 1.3%; OR, 3.65; 95% CI, 1.48-8.97), than the general population. Hematological neoplasm-related deaths were more prevalent in SjS patients than in the non-SjS population (18.3% vs. 8.9%; OR, 2.04; 95% CI, 1.25-3.31), mostly attributable to the higher proportion of deaths from B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (8.3% vs. 2.5%; OR, 3.04; 95% CI, 1.54-6.03) and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (1.8% vs. 0.1%; OR, 70.17; 95% CI, 16.61-296.36).
conclusionSjS patients face an elevated risk of mortality from small bowel neoplasms, ovarian carcinomas, and B-cell and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma compared with the general Spanish population. Apart from developing approaches to mitigate their occurrence, it is crucial to explore thoroughly and consider the implementation of targeted early-detection programs for these specific conditions.
