Decreased Protein Levels and Vitamin B12 Plasma Concentration in Primary Sjögren Syndrome are Associated with Peripheral Neuropathy: A Case-Control Study

نویسندگان

چکیده

Prognostic factors for peripheral nervous system (PNS) manifestations in primary Sjögren Syndrome (pSS) are essential predicting and preventing disease-related disability. Given the established relationship between vitamin B12 deficiency pSS, we aimed to investigate predictive value of low concentration Sjögren's induced neuropathy (PN).

The relationship between serum vitamin D and vitamin B12 levels and diabetic peripheral neuropathy

Abstract Objective: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common complications of diabetes. Beside the known factors such as hyperglycemia in the pathogenesis of this complication, other etiologies may play role in the pathogenesis of this complication. The aim of this study was the evaluation of the role of serum vitamin D and vitamin B12 levels in this process. Material a...

Plasma Homocysteine, Vitamin B12 and Folate Levels in Multiple System Atrophy: A Case-Control Study

BACKGROUND Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a neurodegenerative disease, and its pathological hallmark is the accumulation of α-synuclein proteins. Homocysteine (Hcy) is an intermediate amino acid generated during the metabolism of methionine. Hcy may contribute to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. Vitamin B12 and folate are cofactors necessary for the methylation of homocysteine...

Peripheral neuropathy associated with primary Sjögren's syndrome.

Clinical and electrophysiological signs of peripheral neuropathy were found in 10 of 46 patients (21.7%) with primary Sjögren's syndrome, symmetric polyneuropathy in seven (mainly sensory in five, mainly autonomic in two), sensory neuronopathy in two patients, and mononeuropathy multiplex in one patient. Peripheral neuropathy was the presenting manifestation in five patients (10.9%). Onset of t...

Sjögren Syndrome-Associated Small Fiber Neuropathy

We conducted the current study to analyze the clinical, immunologic, and neurophysiologic features of primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS)-associated sensory small fiber neuropathies (SFNs). Forty consecutive pSS patients with SFN were included. SFN was defined by the presence of suggestive sensory painful symptoms with normal nerve conduction studies and abnormal neurophysiologic tests for small ner...
