INTRODUCTION: Infections are responsible for a part of the overall mortality in primary Sjögren's syndrome patients (pSS). Our retrospective monocentric study aimed at describing infections reported in a population of pSS hospitalized patients, along with the characteristics of their disease.
METHODS: Patients with SS have been randomly selected from our hospital database claim, between 2009 and 2018. After careful analysis of their medical chart, only patients with pSS and fulfilling ACR/EULAR 2016 diagnosis criteria were included. We collected main clinical, biological and pathological characteristics of SS, along with all the reported infections during the follow-up. The characteristics of the disease were compared according to the presence of an infection in hospitalization.
RESULTS: In total, 109 pSS patients were included (93% of women, mean age 53.6±14.3 years, mean follow-up 8.2±8.4 years). Fifty-one percent had been exposed to hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). Seventy-eight infections were recorded in 47 (43%) patients. Twenty-five infections were recorded in hospitalization (5 in critical care) in 20 (18%) patients, whom leading causes were urinary tract (28%), pulmonary (24%), ENT (16%), and intestinal (12%) infections. pSS patients with infections in hospitalization were older, exhibited more hypocomplementemia, and were less exposed to HCQ. We found no difference in immunosuppressive treatments exposure.
CONCLUSIONS: The impact of HCQ exposure on infectious risk needs further investigations. Broad vaccination campaign and tight control of sicca syndrome could lead to a better control of infection risk.
