Abstract
HL-A phenotype frequencies were studied in 36 patients with Sjogren''s syndrome and compared with those of 350 healthy individuals from the same geographical area. Patients suffering from Sjogren''s syndrome had a significantly higher frequency of HL-A8 (P corrected < 0.01). The relative risk of developing Sjogren''s syndrome is 3.96 for HL-A8 positive individuals.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
