SUMMARY:What is Sjogren’s disease and how is it managed?
DESCRIPTION:Sjogren’s disease is a multi-system autoimmune condition. Your immune system is designed to identify foreign bodies (e.g. bacteria, viruses), and attack them to keep you healthy. However in the case of Sjogren’s disease, your immune system attacks the glands in your body that make moisture (e.g. tears, saliva). In addition, Sjogren’s disease is associated with a number of co-morbidities that can be classified as extra glandular manifestations and this can include inflammatory arthritis, lupus-like rash, and other organ involvement. This webinar will provide the audience a greater understanding of Sjogren’s disease – what it is, how it is diagnosed and how it is managed.\nOur presenter: Associate Professor Alberta Hoi\n\n \n \n \n \nAssociate Professor Alberta Hoi is a rheumatologist, leading lupus expert and translational researcher in Australia.
