Intend to Edit

I plan on adding more general information and the symptoms associated.

COI (conflict of interest) editing

I would like to write an article on the NBIA variant BPAN (Beta-propeller Protein-associated Neurodegeneration). I am the father of a child that has this disorder. I would like provide an article that summarises the main properties of that disease, also to help raise awareness for it. Besides that, I have no other connection to it. Does this qualify as an COI infingement? --Markus Nielbock (talk) 13:02, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you have a conflict. The main thing to keep in mind is that mention of support groups is generally not permitted per external links. Boghog (talk) 04:49, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Clean-up of this article

I am in the middle of cleaning up this article, but it may take some time. Please feel free to remove the mainenance template whenever you feel appropriate. Markus Nielbock (talk) 10:22, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Diagnosis

As a zebra with MPAN (more a unicorn/pegasus) I think it needs to be mentioned that genetic testing is pretty much considered a gold standard for diagnosis. Which is a PITA if you have idiopathic. Also just because there are dark spots on MRI's doesn't mean it's conclusively NBIA since there are multiple other diseases that share similar patterns. It also comes down to neurological testing to see if the symptoms match as well. A lot comes into play. 120.22.231.217 (talk) 13:44, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing this out. Unfortunately a lot of pages about rare disorders don't get much love on Wikipedia. If you can find a proper source to back this up I encourage you to add this information yourself! IntentionallyDense (talk) 21:42, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm more here in case anyone wants to find out what it's actually like having NBIA. Someone they can ask questions of. 120.22.40.118 (talk) 13:47, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
