Abstract Objective The present study investigates the peripheral neuropathy in Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) using the nerve excitability test to further elucidate how peripheral nerves are affected by the autoantibodies. Methods Each patient received clinical evaluation, examination for anti‐SSA/Ro and anti‐SSB/La antibodies titer, paired motor and sensory nerve excitability test, thermal quantitative sensory test (QST), and nerve conduction study (NCS). Results A total of 40 pSS patients wasenrolled. Motor axonal study of the pSS with positive anti‐SSA/Ro or anti‐SSB/La antibodies (n = 28) was found to have increased stimulus for 50% compound muscle action potential (CMAP) (P |
