Family history

[edit]
Those with families with a history of severe skin disorders are extremely likely to birth a harlequin child.

This obviously can't be right, as it's a very rare condition, but is it meant to say "are relatively likely" or "are extremely unlikely"? If it's the latter, it hardly seems worth mentioning, since everybody is extremely unlikely to bear a harlequin child. The report linked from the article says "There is no report for the relation of harlequin ichthyosis and psoriasis. However both of them are inherited keratinization disorders. We would like to point out that there could be a relation between harlequin fetus and psoriasis", which seems pretty agnostic on the issue (of course, there are skin disorders other than psoriasis). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Camembert (talkcontribs) 02:02, 4 April 2004 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's meant to say, "are more likely", so maybe rephrase as, "Compared to those with no family history of severe skin disorders, families with a history of skin disorders are more likely to birth a harlequin child." - or something like it but less clunky. PMC 23:25, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Well "extremely likely" has now been edited to "the most likely", but I'm still a little uncomfortable with it, as I'm not sure there's hard evidence this is true (at least, as I say, the sources given don't seem to say this ). I think I'll change "are" to "may be", which sort of fits in with the bit I quoted above (though the above is specifically about psoriasis... still, better than it was). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Camembert (talkcontribs) 13:09, 25 April 2004 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I agree. I hadn't seen this discussion, and was trying to tone down an obviously wrong assertion. The emedicine article says that siblings are sometimes affected, so it's conjectured that it's a recessive genetic condition. I think this is not the same as what is stated at the moment.
