Talk:Orthohepevirus A

HEV

Is this the same family as the HEV in coxsackie viruses? If not, a little info would be nice in case someone is looking for the other abbreviation. 76.97.245.5 (talk) 22:52, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Hepatitis E virus → Orthohepevirus A – Current name on ICTV since 2014 Nessie (talk) 16:47, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:51, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

• @NessieVL and BarrelProof: queried move request Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:54, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
• And what about WP:COMMONNAME? —BarrelProof (talk) 20:22, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
• I don't believe we need to use the specie name as the article title. From the ICTV's summary: The species Orthohepevirus A includes hepatitis E virus (HEV), which is usually responsible for self-limited acute hepatitis in humans and several mammalian species, but may become chronic in immunocompromised humans. So, the current article title would be referring to the "hepatitis E virus" of the Orthohepevirus A species, and not the species name "Hepatitis E virus". – Þjarkur (talk) 23:53, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
• Move - @Þjarkur: you are confusing the name of the member virus with the former species name. Orthohepevirus A is monotypic and only has one member virus, so the species name would prevail. @BarrelProof: WP:NAMECHANGES is more relevant, especially as Hepatitis E exists as a separate article.--Nessie (talk) 02:19, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
• Move and leave a redirect. Having a separate article on the disease Hepatitis E actually makes life easier. Graham Beards (talk) 06:44, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
• Support Use the current name for the species. Plantdrew (talk) 19:15, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

The clinical significance of HEV in pregnancy

The most important to add is the clinical significance of HEV in pregnancy in which the HEV infection, especially in the 3rd trimester, may lead to fulminant liver failure and maternal death. It is also dangerous in the immunocompromised. 84.205.241.2 (talk) 16:16, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

Wrong article. This covered here Hepatitis_E#Infection_in_pregnancy. Graham Beards (talk) 16:36, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
