Title: Association between vitamin C, D, and K intake and inflammatory bowel disease risk:
findings from 2009-2010 NHANES
Version: 0 Date: 29 Jan 2025
Reviewer's report:
Only three vitamins are investigated; however, the title refers to "dietary trace elements." This
title is overly general and comprehensive and should be revised for accuracy. I recommend
including vitamin E in the analysis and focusing specifically on fat-soluble vitamins.
Additionally, it is unclear why patients with CVD were excluded from the study, particularly
since CVD is considered a confounding factor in the analysis.
Furthermore, the use of self-reported IBD introduces potential bias into the findings.
