The prevalence of sicca symptoms in Iceland

Útdráttur
Objectives: Sjoegren' syndrome is one of the most common inflammatory systemic rheumatic disorders. The syndrome is characterised by tiredness, pain problems and mucosal dryness. The goal of this study is to elucidate the prevalence of sicca symptoms in the Icelandic population and to calculate the preliminary prevalence value for Sjoegren' syndrome in Iceland. Material and methods: Random sample was retrieved from two age groups; 40-49 and 70-75 years Icelandic inhabitants of Reykjavík and Akureyri. Questionnaire with 14 questions of the most common symptoms of Sjoegren' syndrome was mailed to those sampled. A small sample was evaluated by Schirmer-I test, tear film break up time (BUT) and Rose Bengal score for keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS) and unstimulated salivary flow rate was performed. Results: The questionnaire was sent to 621 subjects, 300 male and 321 female. The response rate was 74%. Of those 20.3% had subjective symptoms of dry eyes and 12.0% of dry mouth according to the six questions used in the European classification criteria (EEC). The prevalence of both was higher in females (p<0.05). Of the 23 subjects who reported sicca symptoms, fatigue and pain problems; 26% had abnormal Shirmer-I test, 13% had abnormal BUT and 39% had abnormal salivary flow rate, two of those individuals fulfilled the EEC criteria for Sjoegren' syndrome (0.2%; 0-0.5%, 95% CI). None in the age and sex matched control group fulfilled the EEC criteria. Conclusion: The subjective symptoms of dry eye and dry mouth are common in Iceland, as are the three major symptoms of Sjoegren' syndrome. Standardised objective diagnostic criteria is necessary when the diagnosis of the syndrome is made.
Inngangur: Heilkenni Sjögrens er samkvæmt erlendum rannsóknum einn af algengari fjölkerfasjúkdómum. Sjúkdómurinn einkennist af dagsþreytu, stoðkerfisverkjum og þurrkeinkennum frá slímhúðum. Algengi augn- og munnþurrks er ekki þekkt hér á landi né algengi heilkennis Sjögrens. Markmið rannsóknarinnar var að kanna algengi helstu einkenna heilkennis Sjögrens og finna líklegar algengistölur fyrir sjúkdóminn hérlendis. Efniviður og aðferðir: Handahófskennt úrtak var fengið úr tveimur aldurshópum; 40-49 ára og 70-75 ára Íslendingum, búsettum á höfuðborgarsvæðinu og á Akureyri. Notast var við spurningakver með 14 spurningum um algengustu einkenni heilkennis Sjögrens. Völdu úrtaki samkvæmt svarmynstri var boðið til skoðunar með Schirmer-I prófi, mælingu á tárafilmurofstíma og Rose Bengal litun fyrir glæru- og tárabólgu. Ennfremur var gerð munnvatnsrennslismæling í hvíld. Niðurstöður: Í úrtakinu var 621 einstaklingur, 300 karlar og 321 kona. Skilatíðni spurningakversins var 74%. Alls höfðu 20% þátttakenda einhver einkenni augnþurrks og 12% höfðu munnþurrk, hvort tveggja var marktækt algengara hjá konum (p<0,05). Tuttugu og þrír einstaklingar (3%) kvörtuðu um öll þrjú aðaleinkenni heilkennis Sjögrens og var þeim boðið til skoðunar. Af þeim mældust sex (26%) með óeðlilega táraframleiðslu og níu (39%) með óeðlilega lítið munnvatnsrennsli. Tvær konur uppfylltu greiningarskilmerkin um heilkenni Sjögrens eða 0,2% úrtaksins (0-0,5%; 95% öryggisbil). Í einkennalausa samanburðarhópnum höfðu sín hvor 17% hlutlæg einkenni augn- eða munnþurrks og ein kona hafði hvort tveggja. Ályktun: Niðurstöður sýna að einkenni augn- og munnþurrks eru algeng hér á landi, sem og þrjú aðaleinkenni heilkennis Sjögrens. Því er nauðsynlegt að styðjast við ströng greiningarskilmerki þegar staðfesta skal sjúkdómsgreininguna heilkenni Sjögrens. Til að hægt sé að fullyrða um algengi heilkennis Sjögrens á Íslandi verður þó að gera ítarlegri ónæmisfræðilegar rannsóknir með stærri skoðunarhóp.
