Commas

suggestion

"Adhesive capsulitis is principally a clinical diagnosis with no definitive diagnostic criteria. Diagnostic criteria used in some research papers (c. 2023) ^25,26 include the presence of at least 4 of the 5 following criteria (in patients without prior shoulder surgery, trauma, synovitis, rotator cuff or labral injury, calcific tendinosis, or rheumatoid or septic arthritis):"

Line 11:166 · More than 5 commas in a single sentence might make it more difficult to read.

There Is

suggestion

"There are no highly sensitive or specific clinical examination tests for adhesive capsulitis ^30,31."

Line 51:4 · Don't start a sentence with 'There are'.

Semicolons

suggestion

"contrast-enhancement of the inferior glenohumeral ligament and rotator interval has been shown to have a sensitivity and specificity of >90% for frozen shoulder; however, contrast administration does not significantly increase the diagnostic performance over non-contrast 3 T MRI ²⁵"

Line 104:168 · Use semicolons judiciously.
