JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977
Ankylosing spondylitis occurs chiefly in young men and affects principally the sacroiliac, apophyseal, and costovertebral joints. Physical findings may be minimal, and special tests may be necessary to find objective evidence of the disease. HLA-B27 histocompatibility antigen is present in 90% to 95% of patients.

Baillière's Clinical Rheumatology, 1993
Ankylosing spondylitis is an inflammatory disease involving entheses and joints, especially those in and around the spine. The most widespread involvement of the respiratory system by this disease occurs when this pathological process gives rise to chest wall pain, diminished chest wall movement and a dorsal stoop.

Ankylosing (Rheumatoid) Spondylitis
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1965The purpose of the exhibit was to emphasize the salient features, subtle signs, and management of anklyosing spondylitis. Usually spondylitis is easily recognized in advanced stages, but if deformity is to be minimized, early detection is essential. Prompt institution of a comprehensive program of management will do much to preserve functional posture.

JUVENILE ANKYLOSING SPONDYLITIS
Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1992We are beginning to understand the clinical nature of JAS, its relationship with other SSA, and factors involved in its pathogenesis. Clinical data may now allow early recognition of JAS through the identification of children with the SEA syndrome or chronic arthritis associated with the HLA-B27.

Juvenile Ankylosing Spondylitis
Radiology, 1977The clinical histories and radiographs of 28 patients with ankylosing spondylitis were reviewed. Symptoms developed before the age of 17 in all cases. Juvenile ankylosing spondylitis affected youths in their early teens, who presented most commonly with appendicular joint complaints rather than low back pain.

Juvenile Ankylosing Spondylitis
Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology, 1960SummaryThree cases of ankylosing spondylitis with involvement of the ileosacral joints in infancy are described. In these cases the spondylitis began at the age of 5,8, and 12 years, respectively. In the case where the disease began at the age of 5, the spondylitic syndrome appeared at the outset and was predominant throughout the disease.

Drugs, 1992
The administration of drugs constitutes an important component of the therapeutic programme in ankylosing spondylitis (AS). The main objective of initiating such therapy is to reduce pain, stiffness and discomfort. There are at present 3 groups of drugs available for the management of AS. The first group is represented by drugs thought to influence the

Juvenile Ankylosing Spondylitis
Acta Rheumatologica Scandinavica, 1967SummaryIn 320 cases of ankylosing spondylitis signs of earlier juvenile rheumatoid arthritis have been found in 20 patients. There is a possibility that these cases, starting as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and developing into ankylosing spondylitis, may represent a special type of the juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
