In response to my peer review, I expanded on the causes section for the different types of arthritis. I also moved some parts of the causes section to the risk factors section in order to allow the article to flow better. Additionally, I aimed to simplify the language even further to allow for better readability. Thank you so much for reviewing my article and providing feedback!
