Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disease associated with the production of autoantibodies and characterized by a progressive lymphocytic and plasma cell infiltration of the salivary and lacrimal glands leading to xerostomia and keratoconjunctivitis sicca (1). A Danish ophthalmologist named Henrik Sjögren in 1932 was the first one, who reported the triad of keratoconjunctivitis si...
OBJECTIVES Assessing the clinical effectiveness of a topical sialogogue on spray (malic acid, 1%) in the treatment of xerostomia induced by antihypertensive drugs. STUDY DESIGN This research has been carried out through a randomized double-blind clinical trial. 45 patients suffering from hypertensive drugs-induced xerostomia were divided into 2 groups: the first group (25 patients) received a...
Introduction: Peripheral correlates of age-associated cognitive decline are important tools in the screening for potentially abnormal courses of cognitive aging. Since salivary gland function is controlled by the autonomic and central nervous system, associations between cognitive changes and salivary gland hypofunction were tested in two groups of middle-aged men in late midlife, who differed ...
PURPOSE Sjögren's syndrome is a systemic autoimmune disease affecting approximately 3 million Americans, primarily perimenopausal women.

Sjögren's syndrome commonly remains either undiagnosed or is diagnosed years after the onset of symptoms....
Background. Our aim was to correlate patterns of failure with target volume delineations in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) treated with intensitymodulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and to report subjective xerostomia outcomes after IMRT as compared with conventional radiation therapy (CRT). Methods. Between January 2000 and April 2005, 69 patients with newly diagnose...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To assess the impact of intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) versus conventional radiation on late xerostomia and Quality of Life aspects in head and neck cancer patients. PATIENTS AND NETHODS: Questionnaires on xerostomia in rest and during meals were sent to all patients treated between January 1999 and December 2003 with a T1-4, N0-2 M0 head and neck cancer, with pa...
Background & Aims: Renal disorders can occur due to several conditions such as diabetes mellitus and hypertension, thus hemodialysis, dialysis, and renal transplantation are the ways that can help patients. Considering increasing rate of survival rate in these patients, disorders of oral cavity can lead to low quality of life and can affect the patient’s general health. The aim of this st...
