Ideal sources for Wikipedia's health content are defined in the guideline Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) and are typically review articles. Here are links to possibly useful sources of information about Genetic disorder.

PubMed provides review articles from the past five years (limit to free review articles)
The TRIP database provides clinical publications about evidence-based medicine.
Other potential sources include: Centre for Reviews and Dissemination and CDC

Mendelian disorder - no clear definition

Mendelian disorder redirects to this article, but it is barely mentioned. It would be good to either stop redirecting or explain properly. pgr94 (talk) 10:54, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Genetic disorder. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20080516200040/http://www.health.harvard.edu/diagnostic-tests/amniosentesis.htm to http://www.health.harvard.edu/diagnostic-tests/amniosentesis.htm

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

This message was posted before February 2018. After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the RfC before doing mass systematic removals. This message is updated dynamically through the template {{source check}} (last update: 5 June 2024).

If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.
If you found an error with any archives or the URLs themselves, you can fix them with this tool.

Onsets?

Hello, friends:

So I'm coming here from the genetics task force. While adding more references, do you think it would be a good idea to add onsets of different genetic diseases, or is that a matter for another article?

Thank you. Poeticfeelings (talk) 15:31, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Epidemiology

Where did the following quote come from?

Around 65% of people have some kind of health problem as a result of congenital genetic mutations.

The referenced article https://doi.org/10.4065%2F76.8.777 mentions the following prevalence:

The prevalence of genetic disease ranged from 4.5% to 12% of total admissions. A prevalence of 30% to 40% was documented by Hall et al and Scriver et al by using a broad definition of genetic conditions.
