 Autoimmune hepatitis in India: profile of an uncommon disease Title:

 Shiv K Sarin Reviewer: 
Reviewer's report: 
Answers to the queries have been partly given. However, the statements in 
discussion that all patients were serologically positive is incorrect (see 
table 4). Mean score of AIH in definite and probable group not given. 
Further, the SD is higher than mean in table 3 for most parameters. Why not 
median and range? 
Fig. 1.not needed There is nothing new in the data which is small in sample size than previous 
Indian studies published on AIH. 
 Reject because too small an advance to publish What next?: 
 An article of insufficient interest to warrant publication in a scientific/medical Level of interest: 
journal
 Needs some language corrections before being published Quality of written English: 
 No Statistical review:
