To evaluate the risk of cancer in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) a series of 205 consecutive patients (182 women and 23 men) were followed up for cancer through the files of the Finnish Cancer Registry. The follow up consisted of a total of 2340 person years. Fifteen cancers were diagnosed against 5.7 expected (relative risk (RR) 2.6, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.5 to 4.4). Among the women there were four non-Hodgkin's lymphomas against 0.09 expected (RR 44, CI 11.9 to 111) and two soft tissue sarcomas against 0.04 expected (RR 49, CI 6.0 to 177). When evaluated by a case control study previous treatment with cytostatic drugs showed no influence on the occurrence of cancer in this series of patients with SLE.
为评估系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者的癌症风险,通过芬兰癌症登记处的档案对连续的205例患者(182名女性和23名男性)进行了癌症随访。随访总计2340人年。共诊断出15例癌症,而预期为5.7例(相对风险(RR)2.6,95%置信区间(CI)1.5至4.4)。在女性患者中,有4例非霍奇金淋巴瘤,预期为0.09例(RR 44,CI 11.9至111),2例软组织肉瘤,预期为0.04例(RR 49,CI 6.0至177)。通过病例对照研究评估时,在这组SLE患者中,先前使用细胞毒性药物治疗对癌症的发生没有影响。
