HLA antigens were studied in three different groups of 50 patients each. These included (a) Forestier's disease, (b) ankylosing spondylitis, and (c) polyarthrosis of the hands. HLA typing included 12 specificities from locus A and 15 from locus B, the frequencies being compared to those in 700 normal controls. No significant differences were found in the frequency of distribution between the polyarthrosis patients and the normal population. In patients with Forestier's disease, B5 was increased, but this was not a significant difference. The antigen B27 was present in 94 per cent of patients with ankylosing spondylitis, confirming previous studies.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D005096 Exostoses Benign hypertrophy that projects outward from the surface of bone, often containing a cartilaginous component. Exostosis
D005260 Female Females
D006225 Hand The distal part of the arm beyond the wrist in humans and primates, that includes the palm, fingers, and thumb. Hands
D006649 Histocompatibility Antigens A group of antigens that includes both the major and minor histocompatibility antigens. The former are genetically determined by the major histocompatibility complex. They determine tissue type for transplantation and cause allograft rejections. The latter are systems of allelic alloantigens that can cause weak transplant rejection.

D006650 Histocompatibility Testing Identification of the major histocompatibility antigens of transplant DONORS and potential recipients, usually by serological tests. Donor and recipient pairs should be of identical ABO blood group, and in addition should be matched as closely as possible for HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS in order to minimize the likelihood of allograft rejection.

D006680 HLA Antigens Antigens determined by leukocyte loci found on chromosome 6, the major histocompatibility loci in humans. They are polypeptides or glycoproteins found on most nucleated cells and platelets, determine tissue types for transplantation, and are associated with certain diseases.
