Twenty-nine (47.5%) subjects fulfilled both clinical and electrophysiological criteria of peripheral neuropathy of predominantly axonal type. Seropositivity to both anti-Ro and anti-La antibodies was more frequently found in patients with normal nerve conduction study. Seropositivity to anti-Ro alone was present in the majority of patients with axonal neuropathy (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05). The presence of RF was associated with several electrodiagnostic signs of demyelination (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.01).

Seropositivity limited to anti-Ro is associated with increased risk of axonal neuropathy in comparison to seropositivity to both anti-Ro and anti-La antibodies.
