Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in diagnostic imaging and molecular methods have changed the management of rheumatic diseases; Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is not an exception. Ultrasound, which is a tool used to detect synovitis of rheumatoid arthritis, is reported to be also useful for the diagnosis of SS. Expressions of noncoding RNAs in patients with SS have been investigated as disease biomarkers. New immunosuppressive drugs such as biological agents and janus kinase inhibitors have been studied as potential therapeutic options. In this Special Issue, we welcome authors to submit papers on the advances in the diagnosis and treatment of SS in terms of both molecular methods and clinical practice.
