[edit]

This article needs substantial revision. There are at least two case studies of children with normal cognitive function. This article doesn't begin to address the great variabilty in phenotype. Cgkleiber (talk) 18:44, 3 November 2011 (UTC)cgkleiber[reply]

What does this mean: "6 and 9/12-year-old male patient"

[edit]

A person cannot have two different ages. And the fraction 9/12 seems a silly, wrong way to write "three quarters". 2A00:23C5:FE1C:3701:49D0:1ABA:3934:4EBA (talk) 19:53, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at the source and the quote is "Our patient was a 6 and 9/12 year-old male who is the fourth...". I will remove the extra hyphen in our article. 9/12 seems silly to me too, but may be the scientific way to write it. Commander Keane (talk) 05:49, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
