Area of Science:

Autoimmune diseases
Ophthalmology
Biomarker discovery

Background:

Sjögren syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disorder targeting lacrimal and salivary glands.
Current diagnosis relies on invasive salivary gland biopsy.
Ophthalmological testing is crucial for SS diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

To review recent advancements in identifying tear biomarkers for Sjögren syndrome.
To find reliable, sensitive, and specific biomarkers for SS diagnosis and treatment assessment.

Main Methods:

Literature review of studies on tear biomarkers in Sjögren syndrome.
Analysis of biomarker potential for differential diagnosis and treatment monitoring.

Main Results:

Tears contain potential biomarkers for systemic diseases like SS.
Research is progressing towards identifying non-invasive diagnostic markers.

Conclusions:

Non-invasive tear biomarkers are needed for accurate SS diagnosis and management.
Further research aims to validate specific tear biomarkers for clinical use.
