Ober's testOber test – 20 results for Ober's test on Pubmed and 23 for Ober test. This combined with the trend towards removing "'s" in medicine and the calls for standardization of the removal of apostrophe s by the WHO, AMA, and NIH, among others, points me towards the validity of this RM.  Bait30  Talk 2 me pls? 15:20, 6 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Safari ScribeEdits!

There is quite a big distinction between the use of Ober's test and the Ober test - makes no sense as a stand alone item without the use of an article. And it seems that use of apostrophe is preferred to an article prefix on page entries.--Iztwoz (talk) 14:49, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would say that distinction is similar to Eagles (band).  Bait30  Talk 2 me pls? 23:01, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
