Title:Gender aspects suggestive of gastroparesis in patients with diabetes
mellitus: A cross-sectional survey
Version:4Date:20 December 2013
Reviewer: PANDU GANGULA
Reviewer's report:
I still have few concerns and I remain keep my original comments as they were
not completely addressed by the authors.
In addition, authors need to update the references list. For example authors need
to discuss the recent developments in the field of gastroparesis. They do not
measure hormone levels but they speculate hormones may cause gastroparesis
in T2DM obese patients. Obesity and T2DM is multifactorial and it is difficult to
speculate that estrogens are higher in this population therefore develop GP
among these patients due to higher estrogens.
I would suggest to delete this part from the manuscript or provide the level of
estrogens among these patients and discuss thoroughly.
