Exosome-miRNA and Transcriptome Profiling of Dry Eye Syndrome and Sjogren's Syndrome

Sponsor: Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taiwan

Summary

This study combines data from two trials testing acupuncture (ACUDES) and a Chinese herbal tea bag TBDESJS for Dry Eye Syndrome and Sjögren's syndrome. Both treatments improved tear production. Researchers will now analyze participants' blood remaining samples and other data to understand how these therapies work. They will use advanced methods to identify tiny RNA molecules and immune system activity. This integrated approach aims to explain how acupuncture and TBDESJS improve dryness and support their use in managing these conditions.
