While there is no cure for Sjögrens, approaches exist to help manage and treat aspects of the disease, and this revised handbook offers everything readers need to understand and cope withtheir diagnosis.The Sjögrens Book, Fifth Edition is a comprehensive and authoritative guide, produced by the Sjögrens Foundation and its medical advisors and edited by a leading authority on autoimmune disorders. This expanded edition provides readers with the best medical and practical information on this disease, bringing together current thinking about Sjögrens in an easily readable and understandable book and providing important new content on areas not covered in previouseditions. With more than fifty chapters written by leading experts, this handbook illuminates the major clinical aspects of the disease and is loaded with practical tips and advice as well as scientific advancements in the field. Indeed, it offers a wide-ranging look at the many faces of Sjögrens, covering diagnosis, the manyorgan systems that can be affected, emotional burden and management, treatment options, and hope for the future.
