Additional Areas to Elaborate On
In the lead section there is mention of physiological microbiology characteristics of A. baylyi (like that it's strictly aerobic, catalase positive, etc.)

I think we need to add another section right below the lead, before metabolism, discussing more of the basic fundamentals of A. baylyi (if it is possible to find that information) -- specifically morphology and physiology

Additionally, including some information on the process of the diagnosis (refer to Chen et al. paper) as well as general prognosis once diagnosed and treated (maybe information on how it's transmitted could be located too?) Mgcorn5051 (talk) 00:23, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Notes from Class 2/20
- update citations (take out ones that have multiple back-to-back sentences)

- Shelby will look into free use of that capsule photo

- (from Dr. Walker) think about what kind of pathways it uses for metabolism (EMP, ED, PPP, etc.)

- review notes previous topic (morphology & physiology, like explaining more about how features of A. baylyi impacts its location and food) Mgcorn5051 (talk) 20:12, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Summary of Peer Reviews (2.29)
LEAD

- include more pathophysiology information in the lead section

- rewrite beginning of lead section so it starts with more physiological/morphological characteristics rather than the history. Potentially move that information into a section of its own

ADDITIONAL SECTION

- include a section elaborating on the microbiology/physiology/morphology so we can elaborate more on those descriptive terms in the lead

METABOLISM

- explain more about how the metabolism works and how the substrates are formed (include a picture somehow...?)

GENETIC MECHANISM

- add additional crosslinks/hyperlinks in the genetic mechanism section (EX: natural transformation and vesiculation)

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY

- explain more what it means for A. baylyi to be an opportunistic pathogen (what allows it to be like that?)

- include more information about how A. baylyi survives

TREATMENT

- explain more about how the treatment actually WORKS in targeting/inhibiting growth and survival of the bacteria

APPLICATIONS

- include more information about applications

OTHER

- double check that EVERY sentence has a citation. If multiple sentences back to back use the same source, just cite the last one, but there are a couple sentences at the end of paragraphs that are lacking citations

- potentially reorganize/connect paragraphs a little bit so that there are not paragraphs with only 2-3 sentences (alternative option is to include more information in them)

- photos were requested, if possible

- "Equity gaps do not appear to be addressed in the edits, however they can briefly be addressed well in the Lead section; also, they could be addressed in the treatment or virulence factors sections." (unclear on what this means, as of updating this review summary?) Mgcorn5051 (talk) 21:17, 29 February 2024 (UTC)


 * - Updated "lead" section edits, decided beginning of section did not need to be rewritten
 * - Added sections for information about microbiology and history
 * - added crosslinks to "genetic mechanism" section (citation for last sentence required)
 * - reviewed section organizations, resulted in mild reorganization of "metabolism" section Mgcorn5051 (talk) 22:40, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
