1.Acute Otitis Media present between the ages of 3 months and 3 years. ( When I wrote this sentence first, I missed”the” before ages. and I used singular form of age).
2. During the last 3 decades, the incidence of AOM has increased in the United States, possibly as the result of the increased use of day care. (leibovitz et al 2004).
( When I wrote first, I missed “the” before last, incidence and result, while I used unnecessary “the’ before use.I used adverb”probably” instead of possibly.Can I use perhaps?) And I guess if I use perhaps, there won’t need of “the”before result.
