The extension of wetting in a standardized piece of filter paper was used to evaluate saliva output in 26 patients with Sjogren syndrome and 101 control subjects. The mean value for normals was 33.6 +/- 6.8 mm/5 min without significant differences for age and sex. Corresponding value for patients with Sjogren syndrome was 11.8 +/- 13.9 Accordingly, this is a simple and sensitive method to quantify xerostomia.
采用标准化滤纸的湿润扩展法评估26例干燥综合征患者和101例对照者的唾液分泌量。正常人群的平均值为33.6±6.8毫米/5分钟，年龄和性别差异无统计学意义。干燥综合征患者的相应值为11.8±13.9。因此，这是一种简单且敏感的量化口干症的方法。
