Title: Benign hepaticojejunostomy strictures after pancreatoduodenectomy
Version: 2 Date: 29 Oct 2023
Reviewer's report:
This study was conducted retrospectively to identify risk factors for BHS following PD surgery.
The topic was clinically interesting. The paper was well-structured and the hypotheses were
tested appropriately. The interpretation of the results was also clear and valid.
I request clarification from the authors on some minor issues.
1. Hazard ratio (HR) seems more appropriate than Odds ratio (OR) for analyzing data collected
in retrospective studies.
2. There are grammatically inappropriate expressions: The median incidence of BHS was 395
days (172-696) after PD (Table 4). Wouldn't it be more appropriate? For example, the median
time to occurrence of BHS.
3. Based on the research results, what efforts are needed to prevent or reduce the occurrence of
BHS? Describe the clinical and applied significance of the results.
