Other Comments:
This is a fairly complete review of the syndromes caused by Salmonella and the available treatments.
The organization would be easier to follow if the "Discussion" heading were replaced with "Clinical Syndromes" and "Treatment." It would also be useful if a blank line was inserted prior to new topics (that is, before each specific syndrome and each drug).
