OBJECTIVE: Primary Sjögren's Syndrome (pSS) is a complex autoimmune disorder characterized by diverse clinical manifestations yet lacking effective therapeutic strategies currently. This study aims to gain a thorough understanding of the clinical landscape of pSS and further delineate its clinical subtypes, thereby enabling the efficient management for pSS.
METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional observational study of 1318 pSS patients. The pSS patients were categorized and compared based on gender, anti-SSA antibodies, and labial salivary gland biopsies (LGSB). Unsupervised clustering analysis was employed to identify pSS subtypes using systemic involvement among patients. Furthermore, we assessed clinical and biological variances among these subtypes.
RESULTS: Through group comparisons, we observed more pronounced extraglandular manifestations among male patients, SSA-negative group, and those with positive LGSB results. Based on systemic involvement, pSS patients were categorized into four groups. C1 exhibited minimal systemic involvement, lacking hematologic or serologic manifestations, with the lowest ESSDAI scores. C2 presented with serologic changes in all patients, partial joint involvement, and no hematologic systemic manifestations. C3 lacked joint involvement but all members displayed hematologic systemic involvement, with higher rates of renal, cutaneous, and systemic manifestations. C4 encompassed patients with joint and hematologic involvement, displaying the highest ESSDAI scores. The positivity rates of antibodies, immunological parameters, and inflammatory markers exhibited significant differences among the groups. Furthermore, notable variances were observed in the expression of peripheral blood transcriptomic modules among these groups.
CONCLUSION: In this cohort study, we summarized the clinical characteristics of Chinese patients with pSS and identified four distinct subgroups of pSS based on systemic involvement, revealing clinical and molecular disparities that unveil distinct pathobiological endotypes. Our findings hold significant implications for clinical management.
