Oxford Comma

suggestion

"Intestinal lymphangiectasia is a condition characterised by dilated intestinal lacteals, leading to lymph loss into the small intestinal lumen. This can result in hypoproteinaemia, hypogammaglobulinemia, hypoalbuminaemia and lymphopenia."

Line 1:216 · Use the Oxford comma in 'hypogammaglobulinemia, hypoalbuminaemia and lymphopenia'.
