Description

The DIS CDR487488 (Imatinib Mesylate) includes an empty Section element. The filter creating the vendor output should be adjusted to suppress this element.

It's often a good idea to add comments to your code. This is the comment I found related to the empty Para element:

If no FDA section exists we need to add an empty para element for the non-DrugCombination documents to prevent display problems with vertical spacing on Cancer.gov

It appears the empty Para element exists for a reason.
Closing ticket.
