The language is adjusted to sound formal, precise, and suitable for academic or research contexts.
4. Consistency checks

Before editing
2.3 Digital health adoption in clinical practice
The implementation of digital health tools has became important in clinical practice because patients and providers are using online platform and the treatment outcome is affected by many factors which is not clearly explain in previous studies.
However, the section does not maintain consistent terminology, and several references do not follow one style. Therefore, it make the manuscript less effective for readers.
Editor note: The idea is relevant, but the sentence is too long, tense is inconsistent, and the research gap needs a more formal academic tone.
