ABSTRACT: Objectives
The association between immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) and Sjögren disease (SjD) has been poorly investigated. This study presents the first retrospective cohort of iTTP-SjD aiming to identify risk factors for iTTP occurrence in SjD patients and examine their clinical course.Methods
Patients with iTTP-SjD were identified within the French TTP Registry based on American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism 2016 criteria. A comparative analysis was conducted with two control groups comprising primary SjD (pSjD) patients from the French ASSESS cohort and idiopathic iTTP patients from the French TTP Registry. Demographic, clinical and biological data were retrospectively collected.Results
