Abstract

Fatigue is a major complaint in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS). To acquire a better understanding of fatigue in pSS, we investigated objective measures of performance decline (performance fatigability). Furthermore, we evaluated the relationship of self-reported fatigue with performance fatigability and factors modulating perceptions of fatigability (perceived fatigability).
