Title: The Influence of the Interval between Percutaneous Transhepatic Gallbladder Drainage
and Cholecystectomy on Perioperative Outcomes: A Retrospective Study
Version: 3 Date: 03 May 2021
Reviewer's report:
1. In Figure 1, the numbers of conservative treatment (n = 159) and PTGBD (n = 28) did not
match the sum of their subdivisions.
2. In the abstract, the method is too short and not well described. Some descriptions in the
result should be mentioned in the method. For example, “We examined perioperative factors
between patients with an interval of #7 days between PTGBD and cholecystectomy (#7-day
group; n = 12) and those with an interval of #8 days (#8-day group; n = 10).” “We also
examined perioperative factors between patients with an interval of #14 days from PTGBD to
cholecystectomy (#14-day group; n = 14) and those with an interval of #15 days (#15-day group;
n = 8).”
3. The first paragraph in the discussion is not related to the authors’ result. This paragraph should
be moved to the introduction.
