note

Blue diaper syndrome is inherited as an autosomal or X-linked recessive trait. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 170.163.100.203 (talk) 15:13, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh God I just stumbled upon this... oh god this sounds awful —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.41.31.163 (talk) 07:06, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs some clarification from a genetics expert. It describes the disease as X-linked recessive throughout, but then includes diagrams and incidence distributions for an autosomal recessive disease. If it is X-linked recessive, then the male offspring of a carrier mother would all be affected, along with 50% of daughters born to a carrier mother and affected father (but none of those born to an affected father and unaffected mother). It's unclear from the article whether the uncertainty is about where on the chromosomes the causative gene(s) are, or that the article has been edited in a confusing way. 86.188.150.11 (talk) 17:50, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be working on expanding the article using WebMD, the University of Kansas, the University of Arizona, the March of Dimes, medical reference book(s), etc. Allens (talk | contribs) 12:42, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've patched it up temporarily by noting that the inheritance pattern is is unclear. SandololDaGrate (talk) 18:43, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
