LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND — An updated guideline from the British Society for Rheumatology on the management of Sjögren disease asks rheumatologists and other clinicians caring for patients with the condition to"do the little things well" rather than overly focusing on rheumatologic treatments. The guideline's new format provides recommendations for specific clinical questions and now also includes recommendations for managing the disease in children and adolescents.
Another significant change is that advice on managing Sjögren disease in children and adolescents is now included where appropriate, meaning that the British guideline is now the first to cover Sjögren disease"across the ages," Price said. The question that was therefore posed was whether there were any measurable biomarkers that could predict the development of lymphoma in adults and children. Seven predictors were found, the strongest being a low level of complement C4 alone or together with low levels of C3. Other predictors were salivary gland enlargement,
Thankfully, that is where the updated guidelines should help, with a recommendation that people with Sjögren disease should use preservative-free eye drops every 2-3 hours.
