Elevated concentration of beta2-microglobulin among patients with carpal tunnel syndrome in the course of primary Sjögren syndrome – a prospective observational study on 50 patients

Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltrates in the exocrine glands. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is suggested to be more frequent among SS patients than in the general population. The aim of this study was to seek associations between the CTS and the laboratory and clinical findings of SS patients.
