Adjectival Hyphens

error

"The aetiology of enchondromatosis has been associated with post-zygote state mutations during development. More interestingly, it has been reported that the PTHrP (parathyroid hormone-related protein) receptor has been implicated as a gene responsible for cases of enchondromatosis in patients with a family history of mild skeletal dysplasia in their male parents."

Line 10:63 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'post-zygote'.
