error

"type 1: proximal pseudoarthrosis"

Line 50:8 · When enboldening an intro, the colon should not be bold. 'type 1: proximal'

"type 2: proximal osseous bridge with distal notch"

Line 51:8 · When enboldening an intro, the colon should not be bold. 'type 2: proximal'

"type 3: complete fusion"

Line 52:8 · When enboldening an intro, the colon should not be bold. 'type 3: complete'

"type 4: complete fusion with other carpal anomalies"

Line 53:8 · When enboldening an intro, the colon should not be bold. 'type 4: complete'

Semicolons

suggestion

"Carpal fusion is a misnomer, as the failure of normal segmentation of carpal mesenchyme results in this anomaly ^7,8. Carpal coalition is a less contentious term as its definition is a connection between two bones; it says nothing about how they came to be connected ⁹."

Line 3:227 · Use semicolons judiciously.

Commas

suggestion

"The estimated prevalence is probably"

Line 5:44 · More than 5 commas in a single sentence might make it more difficult to read.

"there are several associated syndromes including Ellis-van Creveld syndrome, fetal alcohol syndrome, Holt-Oram syndrome, otopalatodigital spectrum disorders, arthrogryposis, Turner syndrome, symphalangism, Nievergelt syndrome ^7,11,12"

Line 17:90 · More than 5 commas in a single sentence might make it more difficult to read.

There Is

suggestion

"The estimated prevalence is probably"

Line 5:125 · Don't start a sentence with 'There is'.

"There is no consensus system, with the Minnaar classification the most widely used (c. 2013) ^7,12:"

Line 48:4 · Don't start a sentence with 'There is'.
