Title: Tumor size as a significant prognostic factor in T1 gastric cancer: a Surveillance,
Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Database analysis
Version: 4 Date: 03 Jan 2023
Reviewer:  Jiebin Xie
Reviewer's report:
In the present study, authors investigated the influence of T stage on the prognostic and
predicting value of tumor size by using SEER database . They found that T stage had a negative
impact on the predicting value of tumor size. Tumor size showed significant prognostic value in
T1 gastric cancer, which may be effective in clinical practice. However#I found that the main
points of this study were similar to the paper "Chen Y, Jia Y, Peng Z, Wang G. The prognostic
role of tumor size in stage T1 gastric cancer. World J Surg Oncol. 2022 Apr 27;20(1):135. doi:
10.1186/s12957-022-02596-0. PMID: 35477526; PMCID: PMC9044763.." And the authors did
not describe how to get the cutoff values of age and tumor size.
