Illusions

warning

"Sjögren disease (historically attributed to lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia but but recent pathological evidence suggests protein deposition (light chain or amyloid) may be the predominant mechanism in many cases) ^{15, 16}"

Line 10:101 · 'but' is repeated!

Emphasis

warning

"pulmonary Pneumocystis jirovecii infection"

Line 20:21 · Italics should be used only in exceptional circumstances: 'Pneumocystis jirovecii'

Strong

warning

"Primary pulmonary disease where diffuse cysts are the predominant feature:"

Line 33:4 · Generally, don't use bold in text: 'Primary pulmonary disease'

"Acquired cystic lung disease or cysts as a secondary feature of a primary disease:"

Line 44:4 · Generally, don't use bold in text: 'Acquired cystic lung disease'

Acronyms

warning

"alveolar macrophage pneumonia - AMP (formerly known as desquamative interstitial pneumonia): lower lung predominant ground glass opacities with few cysts, in smokers"

Line 65:43 · 'AMP' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

Litotes

warning

"Most other causes of intraparenchymal cysts do not have associated findings and may be instead distinguished by their distribution:"

Line 75:51 · Consider using 'lack(s)' instead of 'not have'

"Radiographic appearance"

Line 53:1 · "Radiographic appearance" is not a recognised heading for this article type.

"CT"

Line 54:1 · "CT" is under the wrong parent heading (found under "Radiographic appearance").

Oxford Comma

suggestion

"Cystic lung disease is an umbrella term for diseases that exhibit thin-walled lung cysts on CT. This distinguishes them from emphysema (no walls) and cavities (thick walls). The underlying pathogenesis is diverse including neoplastic, genetic and inflammatory."

Line 1:244 · Use the Oxford comma in 'neoplastic, genetic and inflammatory'.

Inline EG

suggestion

"pneumocystis pneumonia: diffuse ground glass opacities with few cysts, septal thickening, in patients with immunodeficiency (e.g. HIV/AIDS)"

Line 64:139 · Consider replacing a bracketed e.g. with an inline e.g. after a comma.

"Sjögren disease or immunodeficiency (e.g. HIV/AIDS)"

Line 66:51 · Consider replacing a bracketed e.g. with an inline e.g. after a comma.
