Cancer immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors, has positively impacted oncological treatments. Despite its effectiveness, immunotherapy is associated with immune-related adverse events (irAEs) that can affect any organ, including the liver. Hepatotoxicity primarily manifests as immune-related hepatitis and, less frequently, cholangitis.

The lymphocyte population must traverse a complex path throughout their journey to the liver. The signals which these cells must detect, including cytokines, chemokines and other soluble factors, steer their course towards further crosstalk with other hepatic immune cells, hepatocytes and biliary epithelial cells. A series of specific chemokine receptors and adhesion molecules drive not only the recruitment, migration, and retention of these cells within the liver, but also their localisation.

Objective: To explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors for adverse outcomes in patients with Sjögren's Syndrome-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (SS-PAH).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on SS-PAH patients diagnosed by right heart catheterization (RHC) between March 2013 and March 2024 across four Chinese medical centers. Patients were categorized into primary SS-PAH (pSS-PAH) and overlap SS-PAH, based on the presence of additional autoimmune diseases.

This study describes a 64-year-old female with a history of hepatitis C and cryoglobulinemia, who presented with respiratory symptoms, including dry cough, shortness of breath, and fever, alongside joint pain and fatigue. Initial workup revealed interstitial pneumonia, supported by chest imaging, and the patient was treated for pneumonia with standard antibiotic therapy. Despite no renal involvement, a hallmark of cryoglobulinemia, further testing confirmed elevated serum cryoglobulin levels.
