Among individuals with SLE-affected first-degree relatives, the risk was significantly increased for RA (HR = 1.64; 95% CI: 1.35, 1.99; n = 103), IBD (HR = 1.21; 95% CI: 1.02, 1.43; n = 130) and type 1 diabetes mellitus (HR = 1.23; 95% CI: 1.01, 1.48; n = 106).
The RR (95% CI) in individuals with a first-degree relative with RA was 2.91 (2.49, 3.42) for SLE; 2.92 (1.62, 5.25) for SSc; 3.13 (2.50, 3.93) for primary SS; 0.95 (0.36, 2.51) for idiopathic inflammatory myositis; 1.96 (1.54, 2.48) for type 1 diabetes mellitus; 3.32 (1.82, 5.95) for multiple sclerosis; 1.31 (1.31, 2.43) for IBD; 2.76 (2.46, 3.10) for AS; and 1.65 (1.54, 1.77) for psoriasis.
