结果骨关节病和椎间盘退变的患病率在55-年龄组中,一些骨关节病的放射学证据几乎是最普遍的(表I,相反)。在接受X光检查的人中,83%。男性和87%的女性。女性的1个或另一个关节有骨关节病的放射学证据。然而,人群中的实际患病率可能略低于这一数字,因为在被拒绝的人中,有风湿性疼痛的人比那些接受x光检查的人更少。因此,根据总体人口样本和接受X光检查的总人数来评估这一比例,从而得出“最低”和“最高”的患病率。真实的比例应该介于这两个值之间。388
Results Prevalence of Osteo-Arthrosis and Disk Degeneration In the 55-64 age group, some radiological evidence of osteo-arthrosis was almostuniversal (Table I, opposite).Of those who attended for x ray, 83 per cent. of males and 87 per cent. of females had radiological evidence of osteo-arthrosis in one or other of the joints x rayed. The actual prevalence in the population, however, may have been slightly lower than this since there were fewer persons with rheumatic pain amongst the refusals than in those attending for x ray. The proportions are, there-fore, assessed both from the total population sample and from the total of those attending for x ray, thus giving a" minimal" and" maximal" prevalence. The true proportion should fall between these values. 388
