Translate a Jargon-Heavy Academic Paper Into Plain English You Can Revise From

The paper says something important and the sentence structure is actively working against you finding out what. This translates the claims, the method, and the findings into plain language without losing the numbers or the nuance, and keeps a technical term in place wherever simplifying it would change the meaning.
