Scientific texts resulting from myths and misconceptions- Medical Writing

Scientific texts resulting from myths and misconceptions:

  • long and complicated sentences instead of short, 
  • clear sentences (Germanic strings of words) · 
  • mixing creative and scientific writing ·scientific “story” not readily apparent  
  • poor structuring of text ·mixing actual results and their discussion  
  • inconsistent use of technical terms and units  
  • misusing or wasting specific and generic terms  
  • reluctance to use first-person pronouns and overuse of passive voice  
  • tendency to turn sharp and powerful verbs into weighty nouns
