UNASSIGNED: The association between @entity5 and immune-mediated rheumatic conditions is controversial, especially as far as @entity2760 ( @entity2760 ) is concerned. Furthermore, no clinical feature has been shown to be suggestive of a @entity627 . With the present study, we aim to address both these issues. The study population comprised N  =  1750 @entity1 , including N  =  100 with @entity2760 , who attended our tertiary immuno-rheumatology clinic between January 1, 2005 and November 30, 2012. A @entity627 was deemed paraneoplastic if @entity5 had been diagnosed in the 2  years preceding or following its onset. The probability of a significant association between a specific @entity627 and @entity5 was evaluated by computing the odds ratio (OR): N  =  702 @entity1 with @entity571 serving as controls. Furthermore, clinical features distinguishing paraneoplastic @entity627 were searched for by univariate and multivariate analysis. @entity10632 ( @entity10632 ) [OR 3.6 (CI 95% 1.7-7.5)], @entity2760 (OR 5.1 CI 95% 2.9-8.9), @entity6017 / @entity6558 [OR 12.09 (CI 95% 2.6-55.8)] and @entity1333 [OR 3.70 (CI 95% 1.81-7.52)] are associated with @entity5 . At multivariate analysis, older age is associated with @entity5 among @entity10632 @entity1 (p  =  0.03), while in the @entity2760 group, older age, male gender, and >= 6 tender joints are independent predictors of paraneoplastic @entity2760 (p  <  0.0004). Cancer frequently either heralds or follows rheumatic manifestations, including @entity2760 . Older age, male gender and a more extensive joint involvement should be considered red flags for paraneoplastic @entity2760 .
