Sjögren’s Syndrome in Clinical Practice
A comprehensive overview of Sjögren's Syndrome, detailing its pathogenesis, prevalence, and history, as well as its many manifestations across various organ systems, including the eyes, mouth, lungs, skin, gut, genitourinary system, nervous system, and musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, the text thoroughly examines the diagnosis of the condition, covering both blood tests (such as ANA, Anti-Ro/La, and CRP) and other diagnostic procedures (like the Schirmer's test and lip biopsy), and discusses a wide array of treatment strategies, ranging from general lifestyle changes and diet to specific drug therapies like Plaquenil, steroids, and biologics. Finally, the book sections explore the syndrome's tendency to overlap with other autoimmune diseases (like Lupus and Hughes Syndrome) and its association with an increased risk of lymphoma.
