Sjögren’s Syndrome cover

Sjögren’s Syndrome: Diagnosis and Therapeutics provides a thorough, multisystemic overview of the clinical manifestations of Sjögren’s Syndrome. It contains chapters pertinent across the range of medical specialties that may encounter Sjögren’s Syndrome cases. Chapters are specialty-specific, for easy reference by the relevant medical specialist. In addition to being a diagnostic guide, Sjögren’s Syndrome: Diagnosis and Therapeutics  includes a section on prognosis and outcomes of Sjögren’s Syndrome patients and provides an exhaustive therapeutic update, focused on new agents and experimental techniques.
The inclusion of diagnostic/therapeutic algorithms illustrates the text with clinical photographs of the main organs involved and helps the reader to make guided diagnostic and therapeutic decisions through decision-based algorithms.

From the reviews:

“This is a detailed examination of Sjogren’s syndrome, from pathogenesis to diagnosis and treatment of the disease. One of the book’s greatest strengths is its utility as a reference. … appropriate for students, residents, and practitioners, but especially for practicing rheumatologists. … the book is quite enjoyable and easy to read cover-to-cover. The writing is clear and the subject is covered thoroughly. … This is probably the most outstanding, authoritative book on the subject that I have encountered. Any rheumatologist could benefit from reading it.” (Jonathan Miner, Doody’s Review Service, February, 2013)
