Mixed Airway and Pulmonary Parenchymal Disease in Patients With Primary Sjögren Syndrome: A 6-year Follow-up.

Both airway and pulmonary parenchymal disease were commonly found in patients with pSS, with a coexistence of both an obstructive and restrictive pulmonary function pattern, where the latter tended to deteriorate over time. COPD was a common finding. Airway and pulmonary involvement may be underdiagnosed in pSS, which is why special attention to clinical assessment of pulmonary involvement in patients with pSS is mandated.
