Sural nerve biopsy is an invasive procedure with risks of permanent paresthesia and functional deficits. Clinically, it is therefore adopted as the final diagnostic test only when the diagnosis remains equivocal, which leads to a small sample size of patients with primary Sj\u00f6gren\u2019s syndrome-associated peripheral neuropathy (pSS-PN) in our study (\n                      n\n                      \u2009=\u20096). This may compromise the statistical power and generalizability of our clinical and histopathological findings. Second, this is a retrospective study based on tissue specimens, and matched blood samples were not available, which precluded the performance of multidimensional integrated analyses. In conclusion, large-sample, multicenter prospective cohort studies are warranted in the future to further clarify the diagnostic and prognostic value of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in pSS-PN.","order":2,"name":"Ethics","label":"Limitations","group":{"name":"EthicsHeading","label":"Declarations"}},{"value":"The authors have declared that there are no competing interests.","order":3,"name":"Ethics","label":"Competing interests","group":{"name":"EthicsHeading","label":"Declarations"}}]}}
