Editors' note: Disability in adults with arthrogryposis is severe, partly invisible, and varies by genotype

In "Disability in adults with arthrogryposis is severe, partly invisible, and varies by genotype," Dai et al. reported that disability patterns in a cohort of adults with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita were influenced by genotype, with important invisible disability. In response, Drs. Sawatzky et al. contend that the data emphasized the patients' "negatives" and that such language may lead readers, including the general public, to underestimate patients' capabilities to lead meaningful lives.
