Forty-nine patients were studied prospectively by salivary scanning to assess the value of this investigation in possible Sjögren's syndrome (SS). Twenty-three had rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with sicca symptoms and a positive Schirmer's test. Fifteen had RA with no sicca symptoms and a negative Schirmer's test. Eleven had osteoarthrosis (OA) with no sicca symptoms and a negative Schirmer's test. Scanning differentiated only poorly between the three groups. We conclude that it has only limited application in the diagnosis of SS associated with RA.
对49例患者进行了前瞻性唾液扫描研究,以评估该检查在可能的干燥综合征(SS)中的价值。23例患有类风湿关节炎(RA)且有口干症状,且施墨试验阳性。15例患有RA但无口干症状,施墨试验阴性。11例患有骨关节炎(OA)且无口干症状,施墨试验阴性。扫描在三组之间的区分效果很差。我们得出结论,它在诊断与RA相关的SS中应用有限。
