Features of Sjögren's Syndrome in Primary Biliary Cirrhosis
Abstract
The sicca components of Sjögren's syndrome were investigated in 14 patients with primary biliary cirrhosis with a battery of tests that included Schirmer's test; rose bengal staining; parotid secretory sialography; scintillation scanning of salivary glands with 99mTc; radioactive counts in saliva at 15 and 60 minutes after intravenous injection of the same radionuclide, as an index of salivary gland function; and histologic study of minor salivary gland specimens obtained by lip biopsy. Abnormalities of lacrimal or salivary glands were detected by two or more tests in all patients. Presence or degree of sicca components of Sjögren's syndrome did not correlate with the duration or the degree of liver disease, the presence of autoantibodies, or the levels of immunoglobulins. Our findings indicate that primary biliary cirrhosis is a systemic disease and support the possibility that its pathogenesis is autoimmune.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
