Occurrence of ankylosing spondylitis in a nationwide series of twins

1 Mar 1995

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To obtain information on the rate of concordance for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in a population-based series of twins. METHODS: AS cases were identified by record linkage of the population-based Finnish Twin Cohort and the nationwide registry for fully reimbursed medications. A clinical examination was performed to establish concordance for AS. RESULTS: There were 6 monozygotic (MZ) pairs and 20...
