<h3>Background</h3> Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a multisystem autoimmune disease characterized by hypofunction of salivary and lacrimal glands possible systemic multi-organ manifestations <sup>[1]</sup>. The prevalence severity lower urinary tract symptoms(LUTS) are higher in diseases such as SS <sup>[2,3]</sup>. Likewise, the anxiety depression increased patients with Primary <sup>[4]</sup>. <h3>Objectives</h3> It was aimed to investigate frequency LUTS evaluate coexistence without LUTS....
To evaluate the effect of neuropathic pain on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) scores in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS). Seventy-two diagnosed pSS were included study. The divided into two groups according to presence/absence pain. Leeds Assessment Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs (LANSS) questionnaire was recorded assess LUTS evaluated using International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Incontinence Consultation Questionnaire Short Form (ICIQ-SF) Overactive Bladder (OAB-V8)....
<h3>Background</h3> Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is an autoimmune disease that primarily affects the exocrine glands, but other organs, including nervous system, may also be affected [1]. Many studies provide evidence of autonomic dysfunction in pSS [2,3]. Although etiology fibromyalgia (FM) not fully understood, data suggest FM caused by system [4]. <h3>Objectives</h3> In this study, we aimed to reveal incidence patients with compared those without fibromyalgia. <h3>Methods</h3>...
<h3>Background</h3> Sjögren's syndrome (SjS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by exocrine gland inflammation (1). Extraglandular manifestations are common in SjS. Some articles reported neuropathic pain 40% of patients with SjS (2). Autoantibodies (SS-A, SS-B, Anti Ro-52) and salivary biopsy used to diagnose The relationship between autoantibody, results, neurological involvement unclear. <h3>Objectives</h3> In this study, autoantibody positivity results were compared the frequency...
<h3>Background</h3> Sjogren's Syndrome is a systemic autoimmune disease that mainly affects the exocrine glands.<sup>1</sup> The most common clinical symptoms of syndrome are dry mouth and eyes. Vaginal dryness dyspareunia may be seen in disease, as female genital mucosa also affected.<sup>2</sup> <h3>Objectives</h3> To compare results by using sexual function scale patients with Sjögren's without depression, anxiety, fibromyalgia to evaluate terms dysfunction. <h3>Methods</h3> Twenty-five...
<h3>Background</h3> Primary Sjögren's syndrome(PSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by xerophthalmia and xerostomia associated with visceral involvement. A wide variety of neurological complications also are characteristic features PSS [1]. Patients can suffer from severe neuropathic pain small fiber neuropathy. <h3>Objectives</h3> It aimed to investigate the presence in patients SS evaluate severity lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) or without pain. <h3>Methods</h3>...
<h3>Background</h3> Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic systemic disease in which immunologically mediated inflammation of synovia-lined joints can disrupt joint structure and function. Methotrexate the first recommended conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARD) when diagnosed patients with RA. The goal treatment low activity or remission [1]. <h3>Objectives</h3> It was aimed to retrospectively evaluate response who received methotrexate (MTX) monotherapy as first-line...
