Objective.确定过去人群中大关节骨关节炎（OA）的种族差异。1209具成年人骨骼，从日本考古遗址出土。评估中国和法国的骨性关节炎，定义为存在糜烂。在亚洲骨骼人群中，肘关节OA和髌股关节OA在狩猎采集者中比在农学家中更常见。与白种人相比，亚洲骨骼人群胫股关节OA的患病率更高。从过去到现在，在某些关节部位，种族群体内和种族群体之间OA的相对频率随着时间的推移而发生变化。
Objective. To determine ethnic variations of large-joint osteoarthritis (OA) in past populations.Methods. One thousand two hundred and nine adult skeletons, excavated from archaeological sites in Japan. China and France were assessed for OA as defined by the presence of eburnation.Results. Within Asian skeletal populations, elbow OA and patellofemoral joint OA were more common in hunter-gatherers than in agriculturalists. Compared with Caucasians, the Asian skeletal population had a higher prevalence of tibiofemoral joint OA.Conclusion. The relative frequencies of OA within and between ethnic groups at certain joint sites have changed over time from the past to the present.
