Sjögren's syndrome is a chronic autoimmune disease which can cause debilitating fatigue and pain. Diagnosis is often challenging due to the variability of symptoms and severity, and a multidisciplinary approach to management and treatment is required, yet there are few comprehensive resources covering everything clinicians need to know.

The Oxford Textbook of Sjögren's Syndrome bridges this gap by offering extensive coverage of system by system manifestations and treatments, as well as practical, evidence-based advice on diagnosing and managing this condition. Bringing together recent advances in research and therapies, this up-to-date guide covers everything clinicians need to know from the fundamental science and clinical characteristics of this condition, to the immunological and biochemical aspects, investigative procedures such as biopsy techniques and imaging modalities, and pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions.
