      Review IHE style conventions with the IHE Publications Specialist regarding formatting of numbers in text sections (e.g., between parenthesis or when spelled out), as well as the use of em-dashes

    Description

      Correct use of bracketed numbers throughout. There is generally no need for parenthesis around numerals in text, and in this case, common styleguides would suggest spelling out "four"

      (Also, remove em-dash after "4 Profiles--" further up the section)

      Existing Wording:

      "(4)"

      Proposed Wording:

      four
