In comparison with non-European countries, European patients had a higher mean age (54 v 51yrs, p Conclusions European patients are diagnosed at older age, are more frequently men, and presented a lower frequency of anti-Ro/La antibodies and a higher frequency of immunological markers related to mixed cryoglobulinemia.
