During a median follow-up period of 9.3 years, 227 women (9.9% of female patients) and 129 men (20% of male patients) with Raynaud phenomenon died. In comparison with a demographically matched standard population, survival was poorer in patients with Raynaud phenomenon (log-rank test\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;0.0001).

In women, the presence of abnormal nailfold capillaries, ANA, and anti\u2013Scl-70 antibodies were related to an increase in all-cause mortality.

In men, abnormal nailfold capillaries, and ANA and ANA subsets, as well, were not related to survival.
