Talk:Behçet's disease
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is Morbus Behçet Latin for 'Behçet's disease' ? -- PFHLai 03:36, 30 May 2004 (UTC)
- It's the same thing with a Latin name. A pubmed search for the term only brings up German language articles. Zyryab 14:04, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Adamantiades-Behçet's disease
I reverted a complicated cut & paste move done by Nestor's truths (talk • contribs) on 10 April. No discussion took place, and the edit histories were messed up. I'm aware the disease presently favours the Turkish protagonist (compare Crohn's disease), but unless strong Google evidence can be provided that the compound name is more popular I'd be strongly opposed to using this as per WP:NC.

- I reverted it again for the same reasons. Also all of the resources linked to in the infobox refer to it as Behçet's disease or syndrome and none as Adamantiades-Behçet's disease. --WS 11:30, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Hey guys they even changed the name of the associations in external links to fit to that. I have reverted it What a joke. The same redirect also has been done in German. Any German speaking Wikian please correct this. MKS 15:47, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Under Causes
I found that under causes it states that Behcets disease is not hereditary. That, however is not true at all. How would the disease be passed on? It is genetic and is prevalent amoung those in the mediteranean. More than likely the disease is provoked by another strong illness. Actually, I am not trying to prove a point by saying this, I just realize that saying it is absolutly not hereditary is not true.
Imput on this would be helpful. Thanks

- Behcet disease is associated with HLA-B51. For more details see the OMIM entry. --WS 11:34, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
