Differential peripheral B cell phenotype in patients with primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) compared to secondary Sjögren’s syndrome associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SS/SLE) [PDF]
Introduction: Peripheral B-cell abnormalities, a feature of both systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and primary Sjogren’s syndrome (pSS), are implicated in the pathogenesis of both diseases and correlate with disease activity.

Integrated Clinical Trial and Molecular Profiling Reveals Immune Drivers of Chronic Hand Eczema
This study performed an unbiased molecular profiling of CHE patients across diverse etiologies to identify shared pathogenic drivers and evaluate the impact of IL‐4Rα blockade via dupilumab over 16 weeks. CHE shows a mixed immune signature involving type 1, 2, and 3 pathways with features of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.

Outcome parameters in studies investigating dry eye disease: A systematic literature review
Abstract The development of effective therapeutics for dry eye disease (DED) is challenging due to its complex pathophysiology, heterogeneous patient presentation and the significant failure rate of previous clinical development programs. This underlines the importance of the selection of appropriate endpoints for clinical trials.

Lupus and Sjögren’s syndrome distinct disease endotypes clustered based on activity scores and immune profiles [PDF]
Background: Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disorder affecting approximately 0.1–0.4% of the general population with a female-to-male ratio of 9:1 usually diagnosed in the fourth and fifth decades of life [1].

Abstract Purpose Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer therapy but may cause immune‐related adverse events (irAEs), including dry eye disease (DED). This study aimed to quantify the incidence of ICI‐associated DED and to evaluate factors contributing to variability across studies.

Severe dental caries as the first presenting clinical feature in primary sjÖgren's syndrome [PDF]
Background: SjÖgren's syndrome is an autoimmune syndrome involving the exocrine glands specially the salivary and lacrimal glands leading to xerostomia and xerophtalmia. This paper presents a case with primary SjÖgren's syndrome that severe dental caries

The impact of systemic long‐term medications for the development of age‐related macular degeneration
Abstract Purpose Age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of central vision loss in the elderly; however, the systemic factors that modulate its incidence and progression remain unclear. We sought to determine whether long‐term use of systemic medications, including diabetes and antithrombotic medications, corticosteroids and ...
