Postal questionnaires were used to study the incidence and intensity of complaints of the spine and peripheral skeleton in patients with ankylosing hyperostosis of the spine. Selection of persons to fill in questionnaires was carried out by means of a preliminary non-randomized analysis of the records of the spinal fluorograms in patients of one of the outpatient clinics of Moscow. Criteria for ankylosing hyperostosis of the spine were the presence of continuous ossification of the anterior longitudinal ligament over a length of not less than 4 successive segments of the spine and the lack of other x-ray alterations in the given part of the spine. It has been established that as compared to the control group (n = 41) without any x-ray alteration in the thoracic part of the spine, the patients with ankylosing hyperostosis of the spine (n = 146) complained of the lumber part and shoulder joints more frequently. The incidence of complaints of other 6 out of 8 parts of the skeleton under analysis was not high in ankylosing hyperostosis of the spine.
采用邮寄问卷调查的方式，研究脊柱强直性骨质增生患者脊柱和周围骨骼的疼痛发生率及疼痛强度。通过对莫斯科某门诊一位患者的脊柱荧光造影记录进行初步非随机分析，挑选出填写问卷的人员。脊柱强直性骨质增生的标准为前纵韧带连续骨化长度不少于脊柱的4个连续节段，且脊柱给定部位无其他X线改变。结果表明，与脊柱胸部无任何X线改变的对照组（n = 41）相比，脊柱强直性骨质增生患者（n = 146）更频繁地抱怨腰部和肩关节疼痛。在分析的8个骨骼部位中，脊柱强直性骨质增生患者对其他6个部位的疼痛发生率不高。
