Abstract

Introduction There is a lack of information about the frequency of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS). Using all-night polysomnography (PSG), this study aimed to investigate the frequency of OSA in pSS and the factors affecting the frequency of OSA in this condition.
