Talk:Fuchs' dystrophy

Removed apparently irrelevant anecdote
As a newcomer to this page, I thought I would explain my removal. As raised at WikiProject medicine, the bit about botulinum toxin appeared to be irrelevant (since spasm is not otherwise mentioned in the article); in addition, the wording ("anecdotally") suggested it was original research and it lacked reliable sourcing. Removed. -- Scray (talk) 21:54, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Different forms or different stages?
Greetings,

In the little "Genes include" chart, I find:

Type-OMIMGene---Locus ______________________________________ FECD1--136800--COL8A2---1p34.3-p32.3 FECD4--610206--SLC4A11--20p13-p12 FECD6--189909--ZEB1---10p11.2

Since the article states that there are 4 stages of the condition, not 6, I presume that there are at least 6 different types of FECD. However, I do not see that in the article. Please clarify. Thank you for your time, Wordreader (talk) 20:34, 16 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Still no explanation of the '4 stages' of the disease nor of the 3 types named in the gene chart, FECD1, FECD4, and FECD6. Does anybody have access to ophthalmology texts and journals? I looked through PubMed, but unfortunately, I do not understand all the Ophthalmology jargon. B^( Thanks again, 2603:7000:D202:6D25:D968:DD7B:76BE:99A6 (talk) 13:45, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
