Interesting, very good effort, but quite FLAWED at this point.
[edit]This article has interesting information, and it's commendable for the effort put into it, but at this point in time it is sporadically written in an atrocious manner.
Example is this part of the section 'Pain and pathologies': " Root pain syndromes, known colloquially as radiculitis, sciatica are one of the most common symptoms caused by damage to the nerve root. Radiculopathy is commonly called the "root". In addition to pain, accompanied by neurological defects. Typically, mechanical dysfunction is caused by pressure on the nerve root or shock can affect both the roots of the lower limbs and arms. Teams root of the upper limbs ".
- The first sentence ("Root pain syndromes,...") is messed up, maybe two sentences run together. The second sentence ("Radiculopathy...") doesn't seem to make sense. The third sentence ("In addition to pain,...") is incomplete, not a sentence. The fourth sentence ("Typically,...") is another run-on 'sentence'. The last sentence in this section ("Teams root...") doesn't even pretend to be a sentence, it's completely incomplete, not even a period to end it.
The next part of that section is not much better.
Perhaps someone has vandalized the article?
And the article is fundamentally just about DISEASES, with little about the microscopic STRUCTURE of a nerve root. I'd like to see something about the rootlets too, how they exit the spinal cord, how & where the rootlets join together to be a root, & how the meninges initially cover them and then transition to the neuria coverings of the nerve.
