Major public-facing changes

Sep 5, 2026

Public-safe evidence records and preparation tools added

Eight neutral paper summaries, three study records, research-participation and emergency-preparation guides, four blank printable preparation tools, and a dated source audit were added. Supplement, steroid, dosing, laboratory-target, activity-restriction, and emergency-treatment material was not published. Specialist review gates remain visible in the source audit.

Sep 5, 2026

Reading paths, appointment preparation, and sharing tools added

A start-here reading path, printable appointment conversation checklist, reusable sharing text, correction route, and RSS feed are available. About now states the limits of recorded reviews. These are website improvements; clinical content review dates have not changed.

Sep 5, 2026

Study details, evidence summaries, and support links checked

Trial eligibility and site lists, selected paper summaries, and support resources were checked and corrected. Source-check scope is now visible beside review dates. Thirteen checks are complete within their stated scope; the 2003 Poppe paper retains a review warning because its published correction could not be read. Source verification is not independent clinical review.

Apr 21, 2026

Core reference layer published

Core FKRP guides, audience entry points, and the initial public reference architecture went live.

Apr 21, 2026

Evidence library and study tracking added

Paper summaries, trial and registry tracking, and structured evidence detail pages were added to the public site.

Apr 21, 2026

Search, glossary, and launch-readiness checks added

Shared taxonomy, glossary pages, site-wide search, related-content modules, metadata updates, and automated validation checks were added.

Operating model

How the site stays current

Review cadence

Each major content type has an expected refresh window instead of ad hoc updates.

Source-first updates

Major revisions should start from published sources, registry records, or formal guidance, not memory alone.

Public changelog

Material updates are summarized here so changes are visible instead of silent.

Backlog triage

Accuracy and staleness risks are prioritized ahead of expansion or growth experiments.

Review cadence

Expected cadence by content type

Core guides

Formal review every 6 months, with earlier updates when major terminology, care framing, or guidance changes.

Papers and natural history summaries

Quarterly review, or sooner if a paper changes how phenotype, monitoring, or evidence limitations should be described.

Trials and registry records

Monthly status check against the source record, with same-week updates when recruitment or status materially changes.

Glossary and discovery pages

Review every 6 months and whenever taxonomy, search behavior, or naming conventions materially shift.

How outdated evidence is handled

  • If a page passes its expected review window, it should move to the top of the maintenance backlog.
  • If a trial, registry, or key evidence page changes materially, the update should be reflected in the source page and summarized here.
  • Review dates should not be silently reset without a real source check and editorial pass.

Backlog process

How new work enters the queue

  1. Capture the change as an issue with the source, affected routes, and the reason it matters.
  2. Triage it into a priority tier before new writing starts.
  3. Update the relevant page or collection entry, then add a brief public note here if the change is material.
  4. Use the existing build validator and smoke tests before merging.

P1 Maintain accuracy

Review-due pages, trial-status changes, broken links, and any risk of outdated or misleading evidence.

P2 Expand coverage

New papers, new glossary terms, additional resources, and deeper summaries that fit the current structure.

P3 Growth work

Multilingual support, contributor workflows, community submissions, and analytics-informed UX improvements.
