Overview
MCTD involves milder disease activity than systemic sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus. However mortality rates have been reported to be high in MCTD and it is known that organ damage increase over time even though disease activity decreases. Organ damage over time in patients with MCTD should be assessed further in future studies.
