In some of the sources the notation of accidentals in this bar is less accurate, which, however, does not influence the clarity of the text. In A and FE, all the necessary accidentals before the lowest notes of particular groups in the R.H. and top notes in the L.H. are missing. The same probably applies also to CDP, although it is hard to conclusively state due to a serious mistake committed by the copyist in this place. The notation of AI is more precise – Chopin wrote there both naturals raising d1 to d1. In turn, the situation in EE is just the opposite – it is exactly these naturals that are missing. GE added all the necessary signs.
