Oxford Comma

suggestion

"Regarding disease detection, as the early rheumatoid arthritis manifestations are non-osseous in nature, ultrasound and MRI have been shown to be superior to radiographs and CT. Plain radiography, however, remains the mainstay of imaging in the diagnosis and follow-up of rheumatoid arthritis ²."

Line 4:101 · Use the Oxford comma in 'nature, ultrasound and MRI'.

"fusiform and periarticular; it represents a combination of joint effusion, oedema and tenosynovitis ⁵"

Line 13:76 · Use the Oxford comma in 'effusion, oedema and tenosynovitis'.

Semicolons

suggestion

"marginal erosions; important early finding, in the “bare areas”, frequently in the radial side of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints ⁷"

Line 9:25 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"fusiform and periarticular; it represents a combination of joint effusion, oedema and tenosynovitis ⁵"

Line 13:34 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"osteoporosis: initially juxta-articular, and later generalised; compounded by corticosteroid therapy and disuse"

Line 17:70 · Use semicolons judiciously.
