Expansion

I have expanded the article with some sources at my disposition, including the quick review in the BMJ 2007. However, I am trying to get my hands on two further sources that I think seriously deserve consideration:

  • Einhäupl K, Bousser MG, de Bruijn SF; et al. (2006). "EFNS guideline on the treatment of cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis". Eur. J. Neurol. 13 (6): 553–9. doi:10.1111/j.1468-1331.2006.01398.x. PMID 16796579. {{cite journal}}: Explicit use of et al. in: |author= (help)CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link)

  • The entire November 2006 edition of the J Pak Med Assoc seems to be devoted to this condition...

Argh

Just lost about 30 minutes work due to a caching problem typical of internet explorer. Have no time to continue further, but will do so tomorrow evening. JFW | T@lk 15:28, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

GA nom

Nominated for GA. Let's see. JFW | T@lk 18:31, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Case reports

I have temporarily removed the following:

Other less well understood situations that increase the risk for cerebral sinus thrombosis are hyperthyroidism[1] and myelodysplastic syndrome.[2]

Both these states (hyperthyroidism and MDS) are only mentioned on the basis of case reports in a relatively low-impact factor publication. While I have not seen the fulltext, I don't think either of them demonstrate causality beyond "wow, our patient has two rare conditions, they must be related".

I have asked our radiology spy Glitzy queen00 (talk · contribs) for some neuroimaging. JFW | T@lk 21:21, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good article?

It is indeed. Application has been successful, congratulations to all contributors. CycloneNimrod (talk) 11:53, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It took a little while to find one so this is the best I can get for now! I hope it meets all standards? As always, I'm happy to help! Heather 11:03, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Glitzy_queen00
