How to make this weird sentence sounds more natural? Yisi Zhou et al. (2011) found that the main influencing facors in physician-patient relationship are a lack of communication between physicians and patients, and a lack of trust of patients on their physicians.

Shall we try: "Yisi Zhou et al. (2011) concluded that communication and trust were the two main factors affecting physician-patient relationships. In their sample, they observed a lack of communication between physicians and patients, and a lack of trust of patients in their physicians." There are two components in this sentence: 1. Conclusion giving rise to a general theory 2. Observations relating to a particular sample.
