I'd be more concerned with how to render "eje"... I'm not keen on "axis" as a figurative. I'd probably be more inclined to go with something like "line" or "thread".

Notes to answerer
Asker: That sounds plausible, thanks Neil!

Asker: No, I don't like "axis" either; I tend to say "core theme" for eje

  -> Cheers :-)

agree  Carol Gullidge: or even fine tuning or polishing, but these would depend on the degree of modifications/additions/tweaking required//Actually, I'm not sure that simply "revisions" isn't what's required. Revisions are normally required after submission or defence

  -> Yes, perhaps they thought "sobre-redacción" sound more highfalutin' than "redacción/revisión"... :-)
