Headache, cognitive dysfunction and mood disorders are common in both diseases, but otherwise there are distinct differences in NP involvement, with cerebrovascular diseases more prevalent in SLE and neuropathies more common in PSS. This indicates that some NP disease mechanisms are shared while others differ between the two diseases.

Background: Neurological manifestations appear to be frequently involved in patients with primary Sjö gren syndrome (PSS). Objective: To investigate the involvement of the peripheral nervous system, including smalldiameter nerve fibers, in an unselected cohort of patients who fulfilled the new international criteria for PSS.

Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an inflammatory, autoimmune, multiorgan disease often involving the central and peripheral nervous systems. Objective: To determine whether there is a selective smalldiameter nerve fiber neuropathy in patients with SLE.

The epilepsy diagnosis preceded the ADHD diagnosis, and was found in a significantly higher rate than would be expected in the general pediatric population. The majority of patients had mild epilepsy and ADHD-Combined Inattentive/Hyperactive-Impulsive Subtype. All cases with epilepsy and ADHD were treated with MPH, with initial response achieved in 86%.
