Title:Chronic constipation in the elderly: a Primer for the Gastroenterologist
Version:2Date:17 June 2015
Reviewer: Rajesh Krishnamoorthi
Reviewer's report:
I commend the authors on their comprehensive review on chronic constipation in
elderly population. My additional comments are-
1. Authors should attempt to give references for all statements as much as
possible. Examples: Lines 148 and 227-232 do not have references.
2. I personally feel that authors should consider elaborating the section on
biofeedback training/pelvic floor retraining (Line 334)
Level of interest: An article of importance in its field
Quality of written English: Needs some language corrections before being
published
Statistical review: No, the manuscript does not need to be seen by a statistician.
Declaration of competing interests:
