Susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis in twins: the role of genes, HLA, and the environment.

Susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis in twins: the role of genes, HLA, and the environment.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the relative effects of genetic and environmental factors in susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHODS: Twins with AS were identified from the Royal National Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases database. Clinical and radiographic examinations were performed to establ...
