The prevalence of radiographic signs of degenerative joint disease (including appendicular osteoarthritis) among a hospital population of 218 cats was 33.9 per cent (74 cats), and the prevalence of signs of appendicular joint osteoarthritis was 16.5 per cent (36 cats). Half of the cases of appendicular joint osteoarthritis had no apparent radiographic or historical cause, and clinical signs of lameness were recorded in only six of them, all of which had an apparent radiographic cause. The 74 cats with radiographic signs of degenerative joint disease were on average significantly older than the 144 cats in which there were no radiographic signs of the disease.
在一家医院的218只猫中，退行性关节病（包括附属肢体骨关节炎）的影像学征象患病率为33.9%（74只猫），附属肢体关节骨关节炎征象的患病率为16.5%（36只猫）。附属肢体关节骨关节炎病例中有一半没有明显的影像学或病史原因，其中只有6只记录有跛行的临床症状，所有这些都有明显的影像学原因。74只患有退行性关节病影像学征象的猫平均比144只没有该疾病影像学征象的猫年龄大得多。
