WP:MEDRS

[edit]

Just a reminder - and this has been previously raised with Dolfrog - the Wikipedia:Reliable sources (medicine-related articles) guideline stresses the use of secondary sources:

Ideal sources for biomedical material include general or systematic reviews in reliable, third-party, published sources, such as reputable medical journals, widely recognised standard textbooks written by experts in a field, or medical guidelines and position statements from nationally or internationally reputable expert bodies.

The article, however, appears to be sourced largely from isolated primary papers. Gordonofcartoon (talk) 13:19, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

yes, but a larger concern right now is verification. there are a lot of citations i've tagged with {{vs}} until i can find complete bibliographic information. feel free to tag the sources you don't feel are reliable with {{rs}}.  —Chris Capoccia T⁄C 14:01, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see it as a larger concern. It's not that the sources are unreliable; it's that they're primary data points, and we've no idea if the overall picture is supported by anything secondary. The sourcing of the article is completely uncompliant with WP:MEDRS, and this piling-in of primary sources needs to stop in favour of finding secondary ones. Gordonofcartoon (talk) 22:33, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
well, yesterday i wouldn't have been able to say whether half the sources met medrs or not because all that was there was stuff like "Temple et al. 2001" without any further bibliographic info or links or anything. now that i've found the bibliographic info for most of the sources we can start deciding which ones aren't any good.  —Chris Capoccia T⁄C 23:43, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
and actually, it seems like the sources you don't think meet medrs should be tagged with {{MEDRS}} instead of {{rs}}.  —Chris Capoccia T⁄C 23:57, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

These research papers included are cited as references by as part of my the main references papers for this article. Obviously GordonofCartoon has no idea how research papers authors cite other research papers. And he continually fails to recognise the leading dyslexia researchers. I am not sure I really knows what he is talking about , but is only carrying out a personal vendetta against me. If he were to bothered to read the 300 or more research paper in my Online PubMed Research paper collections 26 regarding dyslexia on my user:dolfrog or provide some alternative research. He appears to have his own private agenda dolfrog (talk) 01:39, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sources still to be verified

[edit]

I've found complete bibliographic info for most of the sources, but there are still three that I need help with:

  1. "Geschwind and Galaburda, 1985" could be one of three journal articles (or maybe all three?):
  2. "Farmer and Klein, 1995" could be one of two articles:
  3. "Lovegrove et al., 1980" could be one of two articles:
    • Lovegrove WJ, Heddle M, Slaghuis W (1980). "Reading disability: spatial frequency specific deficits in visual information store". Neuropsychologia. 18 (1): 111–5. PMID 7366819.{{cite journal}}: CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link)
    • Lovegrove WJ, Bowling A, Badcock D, Blackwood M (1980). "Specific reading disability: differences in contrast sensitivity as a function of spatial frequency". Science. 210 (4468): 439–40. doi:10.1126/science.7433985. PMID 7433985. {{cite journal}}: Unknown parameter |month= ignored (help)CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link)
    Less likely possibilities are:
    • Lovegrove W, Evans P (1980). "Color-selective adaptation in contrast thresholds for detecting the form but not the motion in moving gratings". Perception & Psychophysics. 27 (6): 585–7. PMID 7393710. {{cite journal}}: Unknown parameter |month= ignored (help)
    • Lovegrove W, Heddle M (1980). "Visual persistence as a function of spatial frequency and age". Perception. 9 (5): 529–32. PMID 7443390.

There should be some good reasons for deciding which ones are correct.  —Chris Capoccia T⁄C 21:35, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

pretty much this entire article is a copy-paste.

oops. actually, it looks like I should have reverted it. Neuromusic (talk) 15:32, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I take that back. I don't think it can be reverted, as the early revisions are simply summarized (but still verbatim copying) from Ramus et al, 2003. Neuromusic (talk) 15:38, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have followed the temporary article link, and created a copyright free version of this article. This article was part of a massive re-organisation by Wikipedia dyslexia project last year, when the main dyslexia article was summerised and many sub articles were created to provide more in depth information with regard to some of the more specialised areas. Unfortunately at the same time dyslexia research moved on and the old theories of dyslexia, although important became less significant. Sorry that we did not get back to copy edit this article earlier. dolfrog (talk) 21:35, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

University of Rennes photoreceptor study

[edit]

I just posted a paragraph on the University of Rennes study that was published last year. While it is does involve visual impairment, I'm not 100% that this is exactly what is meant by the "visual theory" subheader. Would someone more familiar with the culture of dyslexia and dyslexia theory please confirm that I put this information in the right place? Darkfrog24 (talk) 13:49, 21 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vertigo and dyslexia

[edit]

I moved this here. This is all primary sources (and some spam) and is a bunch of WP:SYN.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo

[edit]

Physician Tapani Rahko has tested some 10 000 patients aged 3,5 years to 94 during over 10 years with his positional vertigo tests. The reading speed of patients was measured before and after positional treatments in some 3500 cases to obtain information on the effect. The reading speed of dyslexic patients was increased by an average of 40% after the treatment. The research identified benign paroxysmal positional vertigo causing dyslexia through increasing the amount of involuntary rapid eye movement, making it difficult for patients to focus on a word prior to treatment. Treating the vertigo reduced the involuntary eye movement, easing reading. Multiple Finnish schools are in process of testing vertigo treatment in helping dyslexic children to great effect.[1][2][3]

An independently validated study by Frank and Levinson in 1973 indicated that 97% of 115 dyslexics evidenced neurological and electronystagmographic signs of a dysfunction within the inner-ear and its supercomputer—the cerebellum.[4] Dyslexia was postulated to occur when impaired ocular-motor fixation and sequential tracking due to a subclinical nystagmus of inner-ear and cerebellar origin scrambled the letter and word signals during reading and thus secondarily interfered with their cerebral cortical and related brain processing. A follow-up study of 4,000 learning disabled and dyslexics in 1988 further validated the hypotheses.[5] Utilizing an optokinetic instrument, dyslexics were shown to have significantly reduced ocular-motor fixation, sequential tracking and visual span capacities as well as abnormal signal scrambling vs controls.[6][7] Inner-ear-enhancing anti-motion sickness medications were clinically recognized to improve most all reading and non-reading dyslexic symptoms and mechanisms.[8][9][10][11] Later research suggested that a majority of those with fears, phobias and related anxiety disorders have cerebellar-vestibular determinants and deficits as well as related abnormal optokinetic tracking, visual span and signal capacities vs controls.[7][12][13]
