Journal ArticleDOI

Rituximab treatment in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome: an open-label phase II study.

TL;DR: Findings of this phase II study suggest that rituximab is effective in the treatment of primary SS and MALT/primary SS and the high incidence of HACAs and associated side effects observed in this study needs further evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Salivary proteomic and genomic biomarkers for primary sjögren's syndrome

TL;DR: It is found that WS contains more informative proteins, peptides, and mRNA, as compared with gland-specific saliva, that can be used in generating candidate biomarkers for the detection of primary SS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parotid gland biopsy compared with labial biopsy in the diagnosis of patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome

TL;DR: A parotid biopsy has a diagnostic potential comparable with that of a labial biopsy in the diagnosis of pSS, and may be associated with less morbidity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Progression of salivary gland dysfunction in patients with Sjögren's syndrome

TL;DR: Early Sjögren’s syndrome is characterised by a decreased salivary gland function (parotis>SM/SL), which shows a further decrease over time, regardless of the use of DMARDs or steroids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in salivary gland immunohistology and function after rituximab monotherapy in a patient with Sjögren’s syndrome and associated MALT lymphoma

TL;DR: This case report is the first to describe the effect of rituximab on histological and sialometric/chemical characteristics of SS, and is a promising agent in the treatment of SS associated MALT lymphoma.
