AbstractA study was made of the presence of antinuclear antibodies to Ro, La, nDNA, RNP and Sm in 18 patients with Sjögren's disease (SD) and in 13 patients with Sjögren's syndrome (SS). Anti-Ro and/or anti-La were revealed in 12 SD patients (67%) and in 3 SS patients (23%, P less than 0.05) only. Anti-nDNA and anti-RNP were detected in 39 and 15% of the SS patients respectively and were undetectable in the SD patients. Anti-Ro and/or anti-La were detected in all SD patients, III degree activity, and associated with the presence of Raynaud's syndrome, recurring nonerosive arthritis and the absence of adequate therapy. Anti-Ro only were detected in 44% of the SD patients only and in none of the SS patients. Higher values of ESR, RF and CIC were revealed in the SD patients with anti-La and especially anti-Ro.
