warning

"The clinical presentation is variable and some may be asymptomatic ^17,22. Patients can present with a painless goitre +/- symptoms of hypothyroidism ^17,22. There is often a gradual painless enlargement of the thyroid gland during the initial phase with atrophy and fibrosis later on in the course. Very rarely, patients can present with a painful thyroid (known as painful Hashimoto thyroiditis) ¹⁹."

There Is

suggestion

Line 7:189 · Don't start a sentence with 'There is'.

"There is autoimmunity to the thyroid gland which bears both humoral- and cell-mediated features. This is followed by lymphocytic infiltration of the thyroid gland with lymphoid follicles replacing thyroid follicles. This may affect the thyroid gland in either a diffuse or focal manner. Cell populations include:"

Semicolons

suggestion

"marked hypervascularity does not reflect thyrotoxicosis; indeed it appears to be more common in hypothyroid Hashimoto patients ¹¹"

Line 57:67 · Use semicolons judiciously.
