Immune-Related and Inflammatory Conditions and Risk of Lymphoplasmacytic Lymphoma or Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia

Abstract

Personal history of certain immune-related and/or infectious conditions was strongly associated with increased risk of LPL-WM. The association of both personal and family history of Sjögren syndrome and autoimmune hemolytic anemia with risk of LPL-WM indicates the potential for shared susceptibility for these conditions.
