Talk:Adenomyoma

Fertility and uterine adenomyoma

The following was in the previous version: "Usually occurs in women over 30 who have carried a pregnancy to term. Conversely, it rarely occurs in women who have not carried to term."

I don't think the above is true as per: Wang, PH.; Su, WH.; Sheu, BC.; Liu, WM. (2009). "Adenomyosis and its variance: adenomyoma and female fertility". Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol. 48 (3): 232–8. doi:10.1016/S1028-4559(09)60295-3. PMID 19797011. {{cite journal}}: Unknown parameter |month= ignored (help) It states "The relationship between infertility and uterine adenomyosis and/or adenomyoma is still uncertain..."

WikiProject Medicine Winter 2023 UCF COM

Greetings, Wikipedians! I will be contributing to this article as part of my WikiProject Class.

My Work Plan

Overview:

·      Expand and edit the article based on the WP:MEDMOS guidelines and suggestions by the WikiProject Medicine/Pathology task force

·      Ensure the topic is thoroughly referenced with up to date, evidenced-based literature from reliable publications

·      Preferentially select secondary sources and open-access articles for the reference section

·      Assess the article for plagiarism, aim for a neutral point of view, and strive to minimize medical jargon in the article’s narrative

·      Add freely available images to the article from sources such as Wikicommons, Pathology Wikibook, Openverse, etc.

·      Invite my colleagues in the Wikipedia community to review the article and make suggestions

Proposed Article Structure:

1)    Lead

2)    Classification

3)    Signs and Symptoms

4)    Causes

5)    Diagnosis

6)    Treatment

7)    Prognosis

8)    Epidemiology

9)    See also

10) References

11) External Links

Lead:

·      Expand the lead to include key points from added sections

·      Add references

·      Evaluate for plagiarism, neutrality, and other concerns as outlined in the above overview

Classification:

·      Add new section

·      Research topic and collect quality references

·      Expand classifications to include variants of adenomyoma outside of the uterus (such as in the gallbladder)

·      Edit per guidelines in the above overview

Signs and Symptoms:

·      Add new section

·      Research topic and collect quality references

·      Subdivide the section based on type of adenomyoma

·      Describe clinical presentation for each subheading

·      Edit per guidelines in the above overview

Causes:

·      Add new section

·      Research topic and collect quality references

·      May subdivide to include mechanism, genetics, etc. if enough literature is found

·      Edit per guidelines in the above overview

Diagnosis:

·      Add new section

·      Research topic and collect quality references

·      Subdivide the section based on the diagnostic approach to each class of adenomyoma (findings on physical examination, laboratory studies, imaging, histopathology/staging, etc.)

·      Edit per guidelines in the above overview

Treatment:

·      Add new section

·      Research topic and collect quality references

·      Subdivide the section based on the therapeutic approach to each class of adenomyoma (surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy, and/or palliative care if applicable)

·      Edit per guidelines in the above overview

Prognosis:

·      Add new section

·      Research topic and collect quality references

·      Subdivide the section based on the outcomes of each class of adenomyoma described in the literature (such as 5-year survival)

·      Edit per guidelines in the above overview

Epidemiology:

·      Add new section

·      Research topic and collect quality references

·      Describe incidence, prevalence, demographics, and other relevant data found in the literature

·      Edit per guidelines in the above overview

See also:

·      Link additional relevant articles

References:

Peer review:

Hello! After reading your article, I wanted to let you know that your article is great. It looks like you were able to accomplish most of the edits you had listed in your work plan, so congratulations! Overall, to me it was very readable (follows the readability guidelines), thorough, flowed well, and had the appropriate format. Other points to note are that 1) I tested your links to other pages by a random sampling of them, and all the ones I tested worked, and 2) your references are appropriate.

Some constructive points: I noticed not all sentences have references, so if you wanted to add that I think it would improve the structure of the article. I would also consider putting the epidemiology section right after the classification section to provide more background, but you don’t have to follow that suggestion if you feel it is better where it is. The only thing that I noticed was missing for your workplan was that in the lead, you had wanted to put key points in it. Honestly I think it is fine as is, it would be hard to summarize everything.

Overall, you did a great job, especially considering this was a stub article before so you had to work from scratch. As someone who is not going into OB-GYN or pathology, I definitely learned a lot about this topic from reading your article! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aemorrison (talk • contribs) 18:54, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
