The aim of this study was to study clinical and biological differences between men and women with primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) in China and perform a literature review to confirm if the clinical phenotypes are affected by sex in patients with pSS. Data from 961 patients with pSS treated at a tertiary hospital in China between January 2013 and March 2022 were analyzed based on medical records. Clinical characteristics, including disease manifestations and serological parameters of the disease, were compared between men and women with pSS using the Mann-Whitney U test and χ 2 test. This study included 140 (14.6%) men and 821 (85.4%) women with pSS. Women with pSS demonstrated a higher prevalence of dry mouth, dry eyes, arthralgia, and dental caries ( p < 0.05); higher erythrocyte sedimentation rate and immunoglobulin M levels ( p < 0.05); higher prevalence of leukopenia, neutropenia, anemia, low complement 3, and low complement 4 ( p < 0.05); and higher titers of antinuclear antibody, anti-Sjögren syndrome A, anti-Ro52, and rheumatoid factor positivity ( p < 0.05) than men, whereas men with pSS had a higher prevalence of parotid enlargement and interstitial lung disease ( p < 0.05). Women with pSS are associated with more dryness, cytopenia, hypocomplementemia, and autoantibody positivity. Although men with pSS probably have lighter sicca symptoms and lower immunoactivity and serologic responses, regular monitoring of interstitial lung disease in men is vital.
