42.1Introduction
Sjögren’s syndrome (SjS) is an autoimmune inflammatory disorder of exocrine glands that has a particular predilection for the lacrimal and salivary glands. Dry mouth and dry eyes are frequently proffered as presenting symptoms [1, 2]. These are in many cases accompanied by several nonspecific symptoms, such as malaise
