It had been known that very general surfaces embedded in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) contain \(\ll r^{3/2}\) integer points in any ball of radius \(r>1\), and as a consequence, an algebraic hypersurface in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) \((n\ge 3)\) which is not a cylinder contains \(\ll r^{n-(3/2)}\) integer points in a ball of radius \(r\). Now it is shown that very general hypersurfaces in \(\mathbb{R}^4\) contain \(\ll r^{2+(4/9)}\) integer points in a ball of radius \(r>1\). As a consequence, an algebraic hypersurface in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) \((n\ge 4)\) which is not a cylinder contains \(\ll r^{n-1-(5/9)}\) integer points in such a ball. The proof, which is based on the author's earlier work, uses ideas from combinatorics and elementary geometry.
