Note please that this has been superseded in part by WP:MEDMOS. WhatamIdoing (talk) 23:04, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Crohn's disease

Crohn's disease should be added to the list of disorders so that the layman might see and find it here. The text "Crohn's disease" should be added. Other references also might be made to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and ulcerative colitis.

Good point. I mentioned Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis as the main types of IBD in the article. Mikael Häggström (talk) 06:21, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Category listing

• Comment I tried to get this page listed as a category so I can make a link to Ankylosing spondylitis for it but I'm having problems, it's red lettered. I'm not sure what the problem is. Can you assist? This might be an article update problem with category listings. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Warrior777 (talk • contribs) 06:47, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

About the eye

These might be helpful inclusions listed with or under "Isolated acute anterior uveitis": Uveitis and Iritis.--User:Warrior777 (talk) 07:04, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Merge proposal

@Damjana12: I propose merging Spondyloarthritis (SpA) into Spondyloarthropathy. They seem to be synonyms for each other (sources:[1][2]). While some sources do imply they are different diseases I cannot find a solid difference. CursedWithTheAbilityToDoTheMath (talk) 00:28, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

Spondyloarthropathy → Spondyloarthritis – I have a couple reasons so I'm going to break them down individually:

1. WP:MEDTITLE suggests the usage of the ICD for naming disease articles. The ICD classifies Spondyloarthropathy seperately under Degenerative condition of spine however the definition of Spondyloarthropathy used commonly is listed under Inflammatory spondyloarthritis.
2. Consitancy. The term Axial spondyloarthritis is used instead of Axial spondyloarthropathy.
3. Popularity. Most articles, both research and just general information refer to the disease as Spondyloarthritis, (examples:[3][4][5][6][7][8])
4. Etymology. “arthritis” indicates inflammation of the joint, whereas “arthropathy” just refers to any type of joint disease.
5. Historical context: This group of disease has almost always been reffered to Spondyloarthritis, I'm not even sure where the term spondyloarthropathy came from. (This article goes over some of the historical context)
6. Most diagnostic criteria uses the term Spondyloarthritis. This is shown in this article that goes over the different classification criteria for Spondyloarthiritis.

I know some of these reasons may seem trivial or aren't a part of the naming conventions however I wanted to be thourough with listing all the reasons I feel this is an appropriate move. CursedWithTheAbilityToDoTheMath (talk) 22:27, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

Lead will benefit from references

Although Wikipedia policy is that references are not required in the Lead, in this article the Lead is lengthy and contains many specific facts. While not checking to see if the facts are referenced in the body of the article, it is my opinion that the Lead deserves referencing. David notMD (talk) 10:05, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

I recently re did the article and for the lead I just took information from the body and rephrashed it, meaning I know all the information is supported by the article contents. However I can add cources (and regardless I think the lead is a bit too long). CursedWithTheAbilityToDoTheMath (talk) 14:05, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
