A 73-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of pleural effusion and nephrotic syndrome. Sjogren's syndrome (Sjs) was diagnosed based on a positive test for antibodies to Ro and La, and the result of labial salivary gland biopsy. The pleural effusion showed a high number of lymphocytes and high titers of antibodies to Ro and La. By immunohistochemistry, it was determined that infiltrating CD3+ cells predominated over infiltrating CD20+ cells in the pleura. Nephrotic syndrome was also present, which, as confirmed by renal biopsy was due to advanced diabetic nephropathy. Here, we report a case of Type II diabetes mellitus and primary Sjs complicated by pleural effusion, discuss the available treatment for pleural effusion.

It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.

D012859 Sjogren's Syndrome Chronic inflammatory and autoimmune disease in which the salivary and lacrimal glands undergo progressive destruction by lymphocytes and plasma cells resulting in decreased production of saliva and tears. The primary form, often called sicca syndrome, involves both KERATOCONJUNCTIVITIS SICCA and XEROSTOMIA. The secondary form includes, in addition, the presence of a connective tissue disease, usually rheumatoid arthritis.
