Original edition is 25 volumes. Reprints are shortened but I started wondering how they were shortened. Maybe they added more chapters to each volumes?

Tezuka asked the publishers to remove some of his stories for the reprint.
The reason he removed those chapters was due to him receiving feedback from readers with the very same disease or at times he'd decide that a more optimistic approach to certain stories would've fit better.
Vertical Inc published 3 out of the 11 missing chapters.
