The aim of this study was to evaluate the concordance diagnoses made by senior rheumatologists and those residents in rheumatology general practitioners (GPs).In cohort, 497 patients referred GPs from August 1, 2018 December 16, 2019 were evaluated first a second-year resident rheumatology.

Early diagnosis and therapeutic intervention aimed at remission of the inflammatory process improves prognosis in rheumatic diseases. In order to recognize early rheumatoid arthritis (RA), EULAR defined clinical characteristics patients with arthralgia considered be risk for AR development.

It may occur as primary SS or combined with another rheumatic immunomediated secondary Sjögren’s (sSS), such Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), Sclerosis (SE) Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). This association promotes distinct clinical variants, less severe presentation in SLE-sSS more RA-sSS, peculiarities autoantibody profile minor salivar...
INTRODUCTION: Sicca-syndrome and Sjögren Syndrome (SS) were used as synonymous until recently years, when efforts made to clarify the subjacent causes, mechanisms propose criteria separate diseases. Sicca is generally use dry eyes mouth symptoms without specifying underlying etiology. It composes classic presentation of SS but can also be triggered by medications, hormones alterations, systemic metabolic infectious or inflammatory OBJECTIVE: To characterize patients with Sjögren's syndrome...
