Clinically relevant key messages based on topics discussed.

Topic	Key messages
Cardiovascular risk factors	Some traditional cardiovascular risk factors are more prevalent in patients with pSS than the general population. A patient centered approach should be considered Correction of traditional risk factors is warranted Control of systemic inflammation
Structural myocardial disease	General screening is not recommended Subclinical myocardial changes can be diagnosed using advanced echocardiographic techniques (e.g. speckle-tracking echocardiography) or CMR Search for in symptomatic patients or in the context of ECG abnormalities
Venous thrombosis	The risk for venous thrombosis is higher in SS patients than in the general population, although the risk is not evenly distributed among SS patients.
Pulmonary hypertension	Multiple mechanisms possible General screening is not recommended Screening in patients with RP could be useful
ECG abnormalities	ECG at baseline and during follow-up Aim to avoid situations leading to LQTS Holter monitoring should be considered in symptomatic patients with LQTS
Aortic disease	Screening according to symptoms
Autonomic abnormalities	Screening according to symptoms
