Abstract
A careful survey of adult Haida Indian males for ankylosing spondylitis disclosed a point prevalence of definite disease of 6.2%, the disease being defined by the Rome criteria. This prevalence was markedly higher than previous estimates in other communities. It was unlikely to be related to psoriasis or Reiter''s syndrome.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
