Moved from "references"

edit

The following were loose references in the "References" section:

  • Patel K (2010). "Relapsing polychondritis--delayed diagnosis and fatal outcome". Indian J Dermatol Venereol Leprol. 76 (1): 67–9. doi:10.4103/0378-6323.58688. PMID 20061740.{{cite journal}}: CS1 maint: unflagged free DOI (link)

Other sources

edit

Currently much of the content hinges very much on a single source. Searching PubMed with "Relapsing polychondritis"[MAJR] and narrowing to "review" gives a couple of further useful sources:

  • PMID 24051104 (Autoimmun Rev) - more on the pathogenesis and likely epitopes of autoimmune process
  • PMID 23887438 (Clin Rheumatol)
  • PMID 22771427 (Autoimm Rev) - development of a disease activity score
  • PMID 22071463 (Semin Arthritis Rheum) - role of biologics

Incorporation of these sources is likely to enhance the article further. JFW | T@lk 23:23, 27 December 2014 (UTC)Reply


Yeah thanks :-) I started updating this page a couple of weeks ago. I really want more refs in it, so this is usefull thanks! The symptoms bottom section (with the *) I will change, I think it can really be better. Btw, I agree on the 'brain frog' I didn't really like it, don't know who added it. Once I am done with the text I will add some pictures. I have a few from actual RP patients. EllenvanderVeen (talk) 12:04, 28 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thanks EllenvanderVeen (talk) 13:35, 28 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

We could ask here and here if they would be willing to donate these images under a CC BY SA license. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 23:24, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Eye section moved

edit

I moved the current eye section to talk and I am adding a whole new subtopic to it. I have trouble with the 65%, because a lot of review articles say 60%. So that is why I moved it here.

  • Eyes: About 20% of people have eye involvement at diagnosis and eventually about 65% will develop episcleritis or scleritis, inflammation of the sclera of the eye.[1]

Section Moved from MED talk page about history of RP

edit

In order for not to get the information lost, I copy and paste this directly from the MED Talk page:

Need some help with opening a few articles

edit

Hey guys, I want to add a section about the history of Relapsing polychondritis but I can not open the oldest articles about this on Pubmed. Can anyone have a look and send them to me by wikipedia or e-mail me at

The articles I am looking for:

If you have any other idea about this, that would be welcome also Thank you very much! EllenvanderVeen (talk) 19:29, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

We should try to use recent reviews that discuss the history of the condition rather than try to interpret really old articles ourselves. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 19:58, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

I agree on that actually, unforturnally I have searched hours and hours for it and only found secondary news articles about it. like this one: http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/331475-overview Or a little older from the 60's like this one: http://jama.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=1177828 So I thought that the best thing I could do is look at those articles and see if the secondary articles are right. I don't know, what do you think I should do? EllenvanderVeen (talk) 20:48, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

I tried too,(do what Doc James says get recent reviews)--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 21:00, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Textbooks via google books are often useful for this. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:24, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
Here we are [3][4][5] and there are more. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:28, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
Oh thanks guys, yes I will have a look at these links. I will also look in the Uni library next to my house, didn't even think of that, sure there are some books about it. Thx for the good criticism, I appreciate it! EllenvanderVeen (talk) 22:30, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
"History" sections I find some of the hardest to write. Most reviews do not touch on them at all. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:45, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
Sometimes there are snippets of history mentioned in reviews. I usually provide citations for the original descriptions, in a subtle way of honouring the folks who stood at the cradle of modern medicine. JFW | T@lk 00:13, 5 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
Yeah it is a bit of a challenge isn't it? But I am determined to make a good start on it.EllenvanderVeen (talk) 10:23, 5 January 2015 (UTC)Reply


Ok well I just updated the history part of it. I have a lot more information about it, but I don't think it should be too much. Hope you guys like it. EllenvanderVeen (talk) 16:05, 2 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Other things to add in history if someone has time to look at it (and to make sure I don't forget):

  • First time when Biological agents where used in treatment for this disease.
  • First time when Stem cell transplantation is used in this disease. And first time this was succesfull?
  • Some original references on here: http://www.whonamedit.com/synd.cfm/1695.html

Any more ideas, please add :-) EllenvanderVeen (talk) 10:56, 3 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Respiratory picture

edit

Would love to have picture 3 in this article on the page. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Relapsing+polychondritis%3A+prevalence+of+expiratory+CT+airway+abnormalities.

But I think I need to ask for permission here? http://www2.rsna.org/rsnarights/

I have to ask if it falls under these conditions? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content#Meeting_the_previous_publication_criterion
