Title: Clinical significance and long-term prognosis of ulcerative colitis patients with
appendiceal orifice inflammation
Version: 1 Date: 23 Oct 2022
Reviewer's report:
The authors conducted a long-term study of the association between ulcerative colitis(UC) and
appendiceal orifice inflammation(AOI). They concluded that the long-term prognosis of UC
patients with AOI was not different from that of patients without AOI, and that there was no
difference in outcome between patients with and without resolution of AOI.
The authors' study is interesting because AOI is a lesion that is occasionally encountered, but its
significance is still unclear. There are a few items we would like to confirm before publication.
1) AOI was associated with 5ASA use. how many cases of 5ASA intolerance were included
in this study?
2) What was the percentage of Pancolitis among Extensive colitis?
3) How many cases requiring hospitalization were present with or without AOI?
