Talk:Subclinical infection

"Subclinical" can refer to more than just microbial infection
Currently Subclinical redirects to Subclinical infection, but "subclinical" can refer to more than just microbial infection. It can refer to any problem, for example orthopedic or psychiatric, where some pathology exists but not enough to cause enough dysfunction to lead to clinical detection (or to lead to treatment despite detection). So I may do some moving and/or expansion, when I get a chance, to cover these senses. — ¾-10 15:10, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

What about H. pylori?
If H. pylori is a primary cause of ulcers, shouldn't it be listed amongst the infectious agents known to infect subclinically? Or is the fact that the majority of those positive for the bacterium don't have ulcers that it does not qualify?
