“…Three studies (22,25,27) reported higher levels of RF in RA-sSS patients, one being significant, while the opposite was found in two other studies, although not significant (21,28).…”

“…We found 18 studies which looked at the prevalence of RA-sSS (between 1987-2013) (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33), 13 for SLE-sSS (1998-2015) (34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44)(45)(46), 6 for SSc-sSS (1983-2013) (47-52) and 3 for myositis-sSS (2011-2014) (53)(54)(55). The prevalence ranged from 3.6%-55% for RA-sSS, 5%-22% SLE-sSS, 14%-60% SSc-sSS and 10-23% for myositis-sSS.…”

“…The majority reported data on joint swelling, tender joints and disease activity score assessing 28 joints (DAS 28 score). Half the studies reported that tender joints were significantly higher in RA-sSS patients compared to RA patients (22,27), while the other half reported no significant difference (21,28). Only one reported study looked at other clinical features including lymphadenopathy, thyroiditis, lung, renal and CNS involvement (27).…”

Lymphoepithelial salivary gland cysts are rarely seen in autoimmune diseases particularly Sjogren syndrome as well as in HIV for which medical management is advocated. To study the morphology of these cysts, correlate with the disease process and assess the final outcome. Case series. Fine needle aspiration clinic. HIV-infected and autoimmune disease patients with lymphoepithelial cysts. Antiretroviral therapy for HIVpatients and anti-inflammatory drugs for Sjogren syndrome. Three HIV-infected patients (two children and one adult) and three middle aged female patients presented with parotid and submandibular cysts, two of which were bilateral along with submandibular (one each in the HIV and the autoimmune group). In the adult HIV-patient, the cyst was found at the inception of the disease while the other pediatric HIV-patients just crossed a decade. Of the other three cases of Sjogren syndrome, two were primary and one, secondary to rheumatoid arthritis. All the cysts regressed completely with treatment of the respective diseases which was confirmed by ultrasonograms. Lymphoepithelial cysts are produced by release of serous secretion by the acinar and ductal cells within the epithelial islands in the process of their destruction. Possibly, antibody mediated increased secretion in the initial stages also plays a role. Lymphoepithelial cysts of HIV patients may occur in the course of treatment, not necessarily in the beginning, though it resolves spontaneously. Lymphoepithelial cysts of primary or secondary Sjogren syndrome may be repressed sufficiently by antiinflammatory/immunosuppressant treatment.
