Also there are several contradictions. The article states that there is a dominant and recessive strain of the disease yet later on states that 90% of cases are caused by the dominant strain and the rest are random mutations. This is highly confusing.

Greetings:
I have noticed that there is a section on the possible alternative treatment of polycystic kidney disease. The section entirely lacks any references, and there is a dubious-discuss tag next to the information. While I firmly believe the information in this section to be false and support it's immediate removal, I thought it would be best to discuss the matter here first.

I am looking at records for a man who died in 1942 (a non-military death). His death certificate states his primary cause of death was polycystic kidney [disease], secondary cause was anemia.
I removed the soy milk part, and really the 4th reference needs to go because it doesn't have anything to do with the statement at all. But the entire section needs to go unless you can list a source that states what you are claiming. Because the way it reads is, one source says y about x and the other source says that z can do this to y, so I'm going to draw a conclusion and make a definitive statement based on that observation. But that's speculating, which really has no place in an encyclopedia article. [[Special:Contributions/173.26.61.114|173.26.61.114]] ([[User talk:173.26.61.114|talk]]) 16:50, 2 July 2010 (UTC)mia


Meanwhile, his burial record dates that his cause of death was edema.
There is still speculative language in this section after eight months of discussion. Additionally, the speculative nature of the section has not been resolved with appropriate references. If no one objects, I'm going to remove this section. [[User:Mlcastillo|Mlcastillo]] ([[User talk:Mlcastillo|talk]]) 15:00, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Edema?

[edit]

Greetings:

I am looking at records for a man who died in 1942 (a non-military death). His death certificate states his primary cause of death was polycystic kidney [disease], secondary cause was anemia.

Meanwhile, his burial record dates that his cause of death was edema.

Can edema be a symptom or consequence of polycystic kidney disease?
