Talk:Focal seizure

message: The information for the entire article is very thorough about the experience of what this type of seizure entails. However undr the heading Simple Partial Seizure and the subheading Eponym, there doesn't seem to be much information about what type of seizure it is. Only a small amount of info about the history is included. Some areas can go into deeper detail, such as the classifications from 2011  and when these focal seizures were first discovered. The sources seem to be a mix of old and new and from a variety of notable sources. Knowlin4 (talk) 20:00, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

message: the following needs to be sourced per MEDRS
;Treatment
Simple partial seizures can be benign and might not require to be treated. Complex partial seizures require to be treated. Conservative pharmacological therapy with antiepileptics is usually tried. Topiramate or valproic acid are preferable although all other current antiepileptics excepting ethosuximide, can be used in the treatment of complex partial seizures. Treatment of underlying cause is important. Surgery might be needed in certain cases.
;In pregnant women
In pregnant women carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, lamotrigine, and levetiracetam are usually used for control of focal seizures. Valproic acid, phenytoin, and phenobarbital are preferably avoided due to their teratogenic effects.
;In children
In children focal seizures can occur due to diverse etiology. Hypoglycemia should not be overlooked as a possible cause.
;Ancillary treatment options
Avoidance of sleep deprivation, alcohol, and excessive stress are important.

thread_title:  unsourced 

message: This sentence is the one that I think is a bit "untidy":
"The brain is divided into two hemispheres, each consisting of four lobes – the frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital lobes."
To be clear, are we talking about the cerebral cortex and its four lobes, or the two hemispheres in their entirety? Talking about the latter, I understand other parts, such as the thalamus, to be included. I don't know enough about epilepsy to feel comfortable changing it - for all I know the thalamus can also be involved in focal seizures - but I think some clarification is required with respect to what parts of the brain this actually refers to.
These would be my two proposed solutions:
"The brain is divided into two hemispheres, each consisting primarily of four lobes – the frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital lobes."
Here the use of the word primarily allows for the inclusion of other structures.
or
"The cerebrum is divided into two hemispheres, each consisting of four lobes – the frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital lobes."
I understand that cerebrum would refer to the four lobes and many subcortical structures, such as the hippocampus, which can indeed be involved in some types of epilepsy, making its inclusion important.

Talk:Macrocytosis

message: Macrocytosis is not a medical sign, its more of an investigation finding.
:sign (sin) an indication of the existence of something; any objective evidence of a disease, i.e., such evidence as is perceptible to the examining physician, as opposed to the subjective sensations (symptoms) of the patient. .  Any objective evidence of disease. In the list is included a "Halo sign" which is something you can only see in an X-ray. Yes, the examining physician perceives it (it's not history) but not at the bedside (so it's not clinical). So it's possible that signs are not CLINICAL signs, so long as they are OBJECTIVE. Which means formally that all test results are signs, if they require interpretation by the physician. Now, I admit that the word isn't usually used in this fashion by doctors. But the formal definition allows it. But even though it's not wrong as is, I won't object to changing this article to say "lab sign" or "non-clinical sign" or perhaps we can get rid of the word entirely for those people who use the more common usage. Go for it. SBHarris 22:43, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Mean arterial pressure

message: Hi, I am not Wikipedian nor an expert, just an Italian translator. I just noticed that the "Italian" language link on the English MAP Wikipedia page links to the Italian page "Pressione arteriosa differenziale", where the definition appears to be completely different from the definition in the MAP article (and mentions that the Pressione arteriosa differenziale is also called "Pulse pressure"). Moreover, English language link in the Italian Article opens the English Wikipedia page "Pulse Pressure" and the "Italian" language link in "Pulse Pressure" also links to "Pressione arteriosa differenziale".
I would not know how to edit the Italian link here as I was looking for information about an Italian equivalent of MAP. I just hope this message will help an expert to see and fix the error.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.6.26.189 (talk) 14:37, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Mycobacterium avium intracellulare

message: The correct name is just Mycobacterium intracellulare, and in the past decade is usually referred to that way in scientific literature, unless referring to a complex of species, not a subspecies.
M. intracellulare has been determined to be a separate species by genetic methods; "M. avium and M. intracellulare are two species, but some serotypes, now designated M. intracellulare, actually belong to M. avium."
 
"M. avium and M. intracellulare are difficult to distinguish by means of biochemical tests and by means of numerical taxonomy. DNA-DNA hybridization confirms that these species are different but indicates that some serovars of M. intracellulare actually belong to the species M.avium..."
 
Those genetic findings are buttressed by proteomic similarity between M. a. avium and another M. a. subspecies, a similarity lacking between that subspecies and M. intracellulare; "Rabbit antisera were raised to some of the strains [of M. avium paratuberculosis;] All were found to be antigenically identical with M. avium and none were found to belong to M. intracellulare."
