Like in b. 45, of which the discussed bar is a literal repetition, FE (→GE1→GE2) are lacking in the accidental before the 5th semiquaver from the end, which results in a g2. The mistake was corrected in EE and GE3.

Like in b. 46, of which the discussed bar is a literal repetition, we add a  mark before the 3rd beat of the bar. The mark was also added, yet at the end of the bar, in GE and EE.

b. 190

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

The penultimate R.H. semiquaver in EE is an a1. It is most probably an example of overzealousness of the reviser, who was supposed to detect the overlooked cancellations of alterations, and who did not realise that a1 at the beginning of the 2nd triplet is not an alteration, but a note proper of the reigning key (B major since b. 184), in addition, an element of the chord constituting the harmonic base.

Staccato dot in FE (→GE)

3 wedges in EE

3 dots suggested by the editors
..

Like in b. 51-53, of which the discussed bars are a literal repetition, the staccato dot under the bass B1 note is present in FE (→GE) only the first time (in b. 51). In the main text we add the two remaining dots. The marks were also added in EE, yet the dots were arbitrarily changed to wedges.
