We have several terms in the MP currently as susceptibility to X (see list below). I think these would be more properly called increased susceptibility to X, since susceptibility on its own can be used to refer to a range of levels of response (i.e. low susceptibility vs. high susceptibility). The majority of these types of terms are currently named as increased or decreased susceptibility to X. Similarly there are several terms that are called resistance to X that I think should be changed to decreased susceptibility to X with the synonym increased resistance to X. Also the increased susceptibility terms should all get the synonym decreased resistance to X.

Is "decreased susceptibility" really the same thing as "increased resistance"? Perhaps, but I'd like to solicit some additional opinions.

One other thing to consider, how consistent do we need to be in the phrasing of the primary term? In some cases the primary term is increased resistance and in others its decreased susceptibility and in still others its decreased sensitivity. Most of the increased susceptibility terms are either increased susceptibility or increased sensitivity. I don't think we have any terms where the name of the term is decreased resistance.

Name changes and synonym additions are done. I've left this open until we make a decision on the consistency issue.
