Follow-up: The diabetics word & the diabetes
word used without clarifier caused needless
confusion & misleading in the 2nd article that
I linked to in the previous post, documented
below in the appropriate place within the pre-
vious post:

Of the 8 mentions of diabetes in this article
and the 1 mention of diabetics in this article,
they used the 'type 2' clarifier 3 times. Of the
6 times they used no clarifier, here's each
excerpt explaining why they should *not*
have used those words without clarifier:
1) "You can even put diabetes in remission."
NO NO NO, why in the world did they leave
off the critical 'type 2' clarifier here? The art-
icle used the 'type 2' clarifier in its 1st two
times it was solely talking about 'type 2',
then the writer neglected to use 'type 2' & ...
... mislead us by saying something that can
only be true for 'type 2', *NOT* for any other
type of the 7 Disparate High Glucose Condi-
tions.
2) "A different take on diabetes management"
The article is talking about 'type 2' in this sec-
tion, and neglectfully, mislead readers by leav-
ing the 'type 2' clarifier off.
3) "New insulin molecule will make blood sugar
regulation easier and safer for diabetics", links
to an article that's solely about Islit (abbrevia-
tion for the new superior clarifying name of
Insulinitis, near-total to total loss of endogen-
ous insulin) & LaIslit (Latent Autoimmune Islit).
The author neglectfully mislead readers as
the article would have been of great interest
to Islit/LaIslit individuals & their friends & fam-
ily but they/we had no way of knowing that we
were being referred to as the diabetics word
could refer to all, some, or only one of the 7 ...
... Disparate High Glucose Conditions, and
in this case was only referring to Islit/LaIslit.
4) "Researchers urge policymakers to prioritize
people with diabetes for COVID-19 vaccination"
This is the only place in this entire article when
the diabetes word applied to all 7 of the Disparate
High Glucose Conditions.
5) "Findings about primary cilia may be relevant
for transplantation therapies in diabetes" Solely
referring to Islit/LaIslit.
6) "About the diabetes clinical trial" No, within the
text that follows, the writer states the clinical trial
is solely about Cellosis (type 2), *not* any of the
6 non-Cellosis Disparate High Glucose Conditions.
