Twenty clinical symptoms and four radiological signs of different joints in patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) were studied in 2560 subjects from endemic and non-endemic areas of the Shaanxi Province in China. It is suggested to classify the symptoms into five groups representing, different manifestations of the disease. The association of some of the symptoms appears to provide significant criteria for use in the diagnosis of KBD.
