Clinical oral evaluation for the healthy control, non-SS sicca control, and pSS groups. SXI-D: Summated Xerostomia Inventory – Dutch version questionnaire score; CODS: Clinical Oral Dryness Score; UWS: unstimulated whole saliva secretion rate (ml/min); SWS: stimulated whole saliva secretion rate (ml/min). Intergroup difference is significant at *p < 0.05. Results are shown in the log scale, where exact values of variables are given in the following order: healthy controls, non-SS sicca controls, and pSS. SXI-D (5.7; 12.5; 10.9), CODS (0.2; 3.6; 5.2), Candida score (0.3; 0.8; 1.2), UWS (0.31; 0.11; 0.10), SWS (1.54; 0.84; 0.96).
