April edits
I added some info about PA in a nice edit. Left to add is the relationship between PA and atrophic gastritis...
Understandable?
Do you current editors think this article is understandable? I stated in a previous entry that readers can look up the words they do not know, but is that fair enough? I'm just trying to keep this as legit, helpful, and understandable as possible for everyone. Thanks! OnFire4Jesus (talk) 03:17, 23 March 2008 (EST)
NEUROLOGICAL manifestations:
Neurological manifestations of B12 deficiency include:
Posterlateral sclerosis of the spinal cord,
anosmia, and
optic nerve disease.
Pernicious anemia most usually presents via neurological symptoms in societies where food is fortified with folic acid (because folate-fortified foods obscure the better known megaloblastic anemia seen in red blood cells when inadequate B12 is accompanied by inadequate folate.
Oral Treatment info is incorrect
The statement under treatment oral is incorrect.
The Cochrane study referenced later came out and said that their study that suggests oral supplements work as well as injections was based on poor quality evidence. It should be at the end of the study. Lucyswiki (talk) 22:55, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
