the topic. They are not meant to exclude relevant, but undisputed information and in fact, editors are constantly implored to be inclusive of information via a verity of methods where the inclusion is not given undue weight in the article. Adding Lyme disease as a rare cause of DM is supported by the literature, it is not disputed by the literature and there is nothing in the guidelines that prevent it's inclusion in the article as long as the inclusion is appropriately written and weighted.
190: 839:. The way to solve this is find a few MEDRS sources (reviews in good journals published in the last five years or so, or statements from major medical/scientific bodies) that discuss the relevance of Lyme to DM. That is how things work. You will notice I took a lot of time updating the article. I read a lot and as I said I found no sources discussing Lyme. But maybe I missed something. It is unlikely, but maybe. 166: 965: 22: 84: 53: 94: 226: 977: 874:
Nope, the policies and guidelines are built the way they are to ensure that articles are neutral and not influenced -- by inclusion or exclusion -- by what editors who show up here happen to care about. I have spent as much time as I am willing on this. I won't respond further until you bring a few
859:
No that's not how things work. There is nothing in the guidelines that exclude sources more than five years old, or exclude secondary sources and the guidelines implore editors to be inclusive. I've fully stated this in my previous edit. You are applying guidelines as rigid rules to exclude relevant,
816:
Are there sources that dispute that Lyme Disease can be a causative agent of DM? Is this a controversial topic within the literature? NPOV and the other guidelines you refer to are in place to arbitrate between minority and/or extreme views that run in opposition to the main current of information on

Dermatomyositis is rare. Lyme induced dermatomyositis is rarer still but it is a form of Dermatomyositis that responds well to treatment and is "curable". Dr Steere's article has been referenced many times in articles describing successful treatment of lyme disease induced Dermatomyositis, and in at

an essential guideline. The way we work is that we read a bunch of MEDRS sources and summarize them, giving WEIGHT according to what the articles say - we don't enter the process looking for X. That said I did keep an eye peeled for Lyme stuff since I knew you were interested in it. But recent
676:
There is abundant literature showing that Lyme Disease can induce dermatomyositis and/or mimic it's symptoms. You know that the literature and case studies exist but you chose to remove all reference to it. It is a rare cause of this disease, and thus not mentioned in reviews but it does happen and

Damwiki1 thanks for bringing up the possible DM-Lyme connection, i agree it should be mentioned in the article, no matter if your reference is 5 or 25 years old, i agree there might be censorship going on by the orthodoxy on wikipedia, and possible conflicts of interest. Anyway im thankfull to you

The page currently refers to Grotton Lesions and Gottron's Papules. Are these synonymous, or do they refer to different findings? I was under the impression that Gottron's Papules were the correct name, but a brief online search reveals some references to both, so I am
347:
What is the basis for adding "priapism" to this article? This needs a reference. I could find no such reference in UpToDate or on PubMed. The ANA titer levels correlating to negative and positive need to be addressed. It currently appears that the levels are inversed.
942:
I think a section that discusses how DM overlaps with many other autoimmune conditions and that it can mimic other conditions is worthwhile. Mentioning co-morbidity with Lyme and other conditions can better describe the somewhat nebulous nature of DM, especially

We give WEIGHT to things per what reliable sources say. I pulled a bunch of new MEDRS sources into this article and none of them even talk about Lyme, much less Steere's thoughts about the relationship between Lyme and DM. We follow sources.

olivier was created a life peer, baron olivier of brighton in 1970, before he contracted dermatomyositis. there is no rationale for listing him as anything other than such.'sir' laurence is absolutely incorrect.
