Talk:Arthrogryposis

message: I doubt Arthrogryposis really is a muscle disorder. It is more a joint disorder.
It's both, primarily the tendons and ligameents are affected, being either too tight (contracted) or too loose, but my understanding is (and my son's condition is) that some muscles are not as well developed as they should be. cantis 03:34, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Muscle disorder? 

message: Should the section on management be expanded a bit, provide a few more pointers to items like Hip dysplasia, Club Foot, Physiotherapy, Dr. Ignacio Ponseti (club foot treatment), etc. If parents are coming here for more information this might be usefull? Or is the condition to 'open' and we could be listing items forever?  cantis 03:34, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Management 

message: The reference to Charles R. Martin Jr., M.D., as a "man...who...became the only Medical Doctor in history of the American Medical Association who cared for and performed minor surgical procedures on patients" is nonsensical; obviously many medical doctors are capable of minor surgery.  Is he supposed to be the only *doctor with AMC* to have performed surgery?  That seems quite unlikely, even in the case of such a rare condition, as AMC does not always affect the upper limbs; a significant percentage of people with AMC have no difficulty with fine motor skills.  I have no idea how one would support such a claim, in any case.  I doubt the AMA collects data on the medical conditions of all its members. 98.216.215.247 (talk) 00:28, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know if all the red-linked names are notable, but I added another because she's apparently the title person of a notable short documentary. Hope it's okay. I might make an article on her band Liyana.--T. Anthony (talk) 07:23, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  People Affected 

message: There appears to be a personal entry "Alannah Nicole Marshall" within this list.  I googled the name and there is nothing of note that returns.  While I am very, very sorry this family lost their child, I don't think it's an appropriate addition to the list.  I am going to modify the page and remove the reference.

thread_title:  Affected people 

message: AM is a big problem in food production, particularly in cattle. A section should be added for cattle and other affected species. 128.104.204.63 (talk) 19:48, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Animal Section 

message: Article needs some serious effort towards improving it. A few initial observations:
* Currently, the "classification" section list a big variety of medical disorders that share the symptom of arthrogryposis. The following sections, however, focus exclusively on AMC. An idea would be to keep this article as a general description of  arthrogryposis as a symptom (and relevant treatment); while a separate article Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita would be split off for conditions characterised by congenital arthrogryposis. A proper classification table, with OMIM references, involved gene, etc., should also be prepared, for example the way it is done on Spinal muscular atrophies or Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease.
* List of famous people with Arthrogryposis in its current form makes very little sense to me. Many of names listed don't even have a Wikipedia article (see WP:WTAF). I suggest a WP:CATEGORY "People with arthrogryposis" is created and linked from the article.
* The article relies too heavily on primary sources.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Perhaps a nitpick but somebody decided to make all of the abbreviations in the article use small caps (sc2 template). This seems clearly a violation of MOS. What is the thinking behind that?
