Figures 3a–d and 4a–b show that strong correlations were observed in eight pairs: (1) disease course with six lncRNA expression levels; (2) visual analogue scale (VAS) of parotid swelling with two lncRNAs; (3) VAS of dry eyes with one lncRNA; (4) β2 microglobulin with six lncRNAs; (5) erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) with three lncRNAs; (6) rheumatoid factor (RF) with two lncRNAs; (7) immunoglobulin (Ig)A with two lncRNAs; and (8) IgM with one lncRNA. Here, CD79A is linked to Keratoconjunctivitis sicca.
