Medpedia- only doctors allowed?

I actually like this idea. Gives me more hope that the information will be right since on other Wiki sites people can easily mess with the information, making it false. Love that you have to be invited to contribute. Not everything Wiki should need to have public access... they are suppose to be used for information anyways, let's go with correction information, especially in the medical field.

Looking forward for the release of Medpedia..just hope it will be successful,..

Very nice site though and nice articles. You should consider adding a Newsletter, Feed or Twitter option to have people easily follow you. Also, wish you Had a similar site for Computer Science and IT.

I am eagerly waiting for the release of Medpedia. It would be a great resource for us.

Hair transplant is a form of hair restoration wherein hair from one part of a man’s head is surgically removed and then implanted in the thinning areas of the scalp. Common places for the hair implants to be taken from are the back of the neck and in some cases, even the sides of the head. Strips of healthy hair follicles are removed and then split into tiny hair grafts. These individual hair follicles will then be implanted into the thinning or bald areas in different directions, in order to mimic the appearance of a normal healthy hairline.

The end result of hair transplant surgery is the appearance of a fuller, thicker head of hair that will continue to grow, just as normal hair does. Hair from the back and sides of the head is used for hair restoration, because these types of hair follicles do not typically experience the same type of genetic hair loss that follicles from the crown, hairline and temples typically do. Hair surgery is relatively safe, and because the donor hair is coming from your own head, there is no risk of rejection or any of the other types of complications that typically are associated with transplant surgeries.

If you are suffering from hair loss and would like the opportunity to have a full, thick head of hair again, then hair transplant surgery just might be for you. Meet with a doctor to discuss the cause of your thinning hair or baldness and make sure that there are no greater, underlying medical conditions causing your hair to fall out. Once you have established this, you can begin to discuss your hair restoration treatment options immediately, and have a full healthy head of hair by this time next year.

The preview page (here: http://www.medpedia.com/index.php/Main_Page ) welcomes "medical professionals" only to become members and contribute (that requires an MD or PhD). The site seems to have an association with Harvard Med School as well as a few other Schools of Health/Medicine.

Sadly, the new site will have advertisements thanks to an internet business sponsor, Ooga Labs. Other sites, like WikiDoc: http://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Main_Page and AskDrWiki: http://askdrwiki.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Physician_Medical_Wiki don't have ads.

It all begs the question-- how important are expert opinions on the web when it comes to health and medicine information and advice? What makes the value of a web health page? The references, the users, the continual refinement by correction, or the contributors?

(Not to mention, they're asking health professionals to volunteer... Is that likely?)

Such a very amazing link!
Thank you for the post.

Sorry but i don't see this working. How will they maintain such a project if sponsorship is not involved?

Medpedia is a really nice site... My mother (Chemist), loves to go on there.

It's a good idea to launch a health and medicine version of Wikipedia, but i too hope it would be visible to all people and not only to medical professionals.

I do agree that it is best to have well-qualified and more knowledgeable doctors write about medical articles to be able to disseminate proper information to the general public.

Bronchiectasis is a lung disease that usually results from an infection or other condition that injures the walls of the airways in the lungs. The airways are the tubes that carry air in and out of the lungs.
This injury is the beginning of a cycle in which your airways slowly lose their ability to clear out mucus. The mucus builds up and creates an environment in which bacteria can grow. This leads to repeated serious lung infections. Each infection causes more damage to your airways.
Over time, your airways become stretched out, flabby, and scarred. They can no longer move air in and out.
This can affect how much oxygen reaches your body organs. If your lungs cannot move enough oxygen into your body, bronchiectasis can lead to serious illness, including heart failure.
Bronchiectasis can affect just one section of one of your lungs or many sections of both lungs.
Bronchiectasis usually begins in childhood, but symptoms may not appear until months or even years after you have started having repeated lung infections.
