TL;DR: Disease-related causes, in particular pulmonary fibrosis, PAH and cardiac causes, accounted for the majority of deaths in SSc.

TL;DR: The prevalence of systemic sclerosis associated pulmonary arterial hypertension in this cohort was similar to that of other catheter based studies and lower than that of previous echo based studies.

TL;DR: This pilot study confirms the tolerability of fluoxetine and suggests that it would be effective as a novel treatment for Raynaud's phenomenon and larger and placebo-controlled trials are warranted to assess fluoxettine's therapeutic potential further in this vasospastic condition.

TL;DR: Joint synovitis and TFRs are independent predictive factors for disease progression in patients with early SSc and may be useful for the risk stratification of patients with SSc.

TL;DR: The results obtained through the largest worldwide database demonstrate a higher risk of severe cardiovascular involvement in men and raise the point of including sex in the management and the decision-making process.
