SSB and rheumatoid arthritis: A ROC curve analysis showed an acceptable diagnostic accuracy in differentiating between SS-pa and SS-RA patients using a binary logistic regression model, where highly positive rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) values, kidney involvement, and anti-Ro/SS-A positivity were shown to significantly raise the odds of having RA, whereas anti-La/SS-B positivity seemed to have a protective role, since it significantly decreased the odds of having it.
