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 Chédiak–Higashi syndrome. 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

the intro paragraph lists White tigers as an animal that can have this syndrome. but in White_tiger#Genetic_defects it says (in the 2nd last paragraph of the section,

This condition has been observed in domestic cats, but there has never been a case of a white tiger having Chédiak-Higashi syndrome.

this statement doesn't have a reference, but a later sentence is cited, and i'm not sure if it covers the paragraph, or just the sentence. they're books from the mid to late 80s. so i have no idea if something has changed since? i'm not a biologist. i just stumbled across this (potential) discrepancy. ≈ Sensorsweep ( talk) 01:46, 24 October 2014 (UTC) reply

• Good catch - I can't find any evidence of a white tiger confirmed to have Chédiak-Higashi syndrome. The phenotype is (in most cases, as far as I can tell) dependent upon an unrelated mutation. This 2013 paper discusses it further. I'll remove the mention of white tigers in this page. JHCaufield - talk - 13:26, 24 October 2014 (UTC) reply

why the various names? Chédiak–Higashi syndrome, Béguez-Chédiak–Higashi syndrome, Béguez-Higashi syndrome all occur in the lede. Béguez is not explained in the article. -- 2607:FEA8:FF01:4E54:D102:AFD3:629C:3C20 ( talk) 13:22, 9 February 2022 (UTC) reply

"Dental practitioners ... should consider making a referral ...." Is this encyclopedic? -- 2607:FEA8:FF01:4E54:D102:AFD3:629C:3C20 ( talk) 13:24, 9 February 2022 (UTC) reply
