Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to explore the connection between activity impairment and salivary gland involvement in patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS) to enhance patient empowerment.
  • - Involving 86 pSS patients, researchers collected data using various questionnaires and clinical exams to analyze relationships using mediation and moderation methods.
  • - Results showed that higher dryness and oral health scores were linked to greater activity impairment, with fatigue and pain levels further influencing this relationship, particularly in patients without saliva reduction.

Objective: Activated innate immunity is implicated in the pathogenesis of Behcet's disease (BD). To clarify the mechanisms of innate immune responses, we investigated inflammasome activation in dendritic cells (DCs) and neutrophils, following stimulation with two different pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) RIG-1-like (RLR) and NOD-like (NLR) in patients with BD.

Methods: Sixteen active BD patients with mucocutaneous lesions and 17 healthy controls (HCs) were included in this study.
