This paper addresses expressions that should be improved or corrected, which we found in the manuscripts written and submitted to us by medical specialists for correction or improvement. Since we have not been trained in the field of medicine, the words and phrases we have dealt with here are not special medical terms, but ordinary ones that are frequently used in medical papers. We have categorized them into grammatical and stylistic items based on the categorization used in T. Matsutaira (1995), and then analyzed the mistaken words and phrases in each category, attempting to find out some reasons that caused the writers to write in the way they did. We have also attempted to discover some types of regularity underlying the mistakes and in many cases we have been successful in our attempt. These regularities will hopefully contribute to the avoidance of future mistakes that readers of this paper as well as the writers of the original manuscripts would otherwise make.

本文讨论了我们在医学专家撰写并提交给我们进行更正或改进的手稿中发现的应该改进或纠正的表述。由于我们没有接受过医学领域的培训，因此我们这里处理的单词和短语不是特殊的医学术语，而是医学论文中经常使用的普通术语。我们根据T. Matsutaira（1995）中使用的分类将它们分为语法和文体项目，然后分析每个类别中的错误单词和短语，试图找出导致作者这样写作的一些原因。我们还尝试发现错误背后的某些类型的规律性，并且在许多情况下我们的尝试取得了成功。这些规律有望有助于避免本文的读者以及原始手稿的作者将来可能犯的错误。
