Thank you for any help. ...

Hi,
I have a question that is driving me bonkers trying to figure out.
I transcribe radiology, and the following phrase is used frequently:

For example, mild- to moderate-grade; mild to moderate grade; mild-to-moderate-grade?
Thank you for any help! ...

The 'grade' part of it could be just about anything...it doesn't necessarily have to be 'grade'. ...

I've seen an 86, 88, 92, and 98. I also made an 88. I had time to verify the ones I wasn't sure of, so I'm a little blown away that I didn't do better than that, but it is what it is. ...
