Risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and thyroid cancer in primary Sj ögren's syndrome measured using the Korean Health Insurance Claims Database.

CONCLUSIONS: Although pSS is associated with a higher risk of developing NHL, the risk of NHL appears to have decreased compared with that in previous studies. Our study suggests that the risk of NHL or thyroid cancer with SS is not higher than that reported in previous studies. PMID: 31969226 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
