Description
Berry and co-authors check if symptom subtypes in Sjogren's disease stay stable over time. A tool called NSST sorts patients into four symptom groups. The team used 274 UK registry patients with two visits. A French cohort of 237 patients served as a check set. Baseline traits were compared across the subtypes.
About 60 percent of UK patients kept their subtype. The French rate was similar at 57 percent. The high-symptom group was the most stable of all. A higher baseline score best predicted staying put. Anti-Ro status and body mass split the groups at baseline.
