A radiographic scoring system for features of osteoarthritis of the canine stifle joint was devised. Intra- and inter-rater agreement was assessed by calculation of unweighted kappa statistics. "Global score," "effusion," "osteophytosis," and "intra-articular mineralization" were all features that had acceptable reliability, but "subchondral sclerosis" did not. The scoring system was used in a 13-month prospective study of the radiographic progression of osteoarthritis of the stifle joint, secondary to cranial cruciate ligament deficiency, in 58 dogs. In the index stifle joints all features were characterized by significant change over time, but osteophytosis had the greatest degree of change. In addition, 40% of contralateral joints showed progressive osteophytosis.
设计了一种用于犬膝关节骨关节炎特征的放射学评分系统。通过计算非加权kappa统计量来评估评分者内和评分者间的一致性。“总体评分”“积液”“骨赘形成”和“关节内矿化”这些特征均具有可接受的可靠性,但“软骨下硬化”不具有。该评分系统用于对58只犬因颅交叉韧带缺乏继发的膝关节骨关节炎放射学进展进行的为期13个月的前瞻性研究。在患侧膝关节中,所有特征均表现出随时间的显著变化,但骨赘形成的变化程度最大。此外,40%的对侧关节出现进行性骨赘形成。
