Title:The role of aspirin in post-polypectomy bleeding a retrospective survey
Version: 4Date:11 August 2012
Reviewer: Dimitrios Kapetanos
Reviewer's report:
The authors addressed most of the previous issues. Three points remain to be
corrected so as the article could accomplish it's goal:
1. The following questions should be answered in the discussion section: What is
the risk of discontinuing aspirin for a short period in patients who are receiving it
as secondary prevention? Does the risk of post polypectomy bleeding balance
the risk of stopping aspirin?
2. I could not find reference 16 in the Pubmed. Since it is an important reference,
with guidelines different from other societies, I think that it should be corrected.
3. It is interesting that no endoscopic effort was undertaken in bleeding (on
aspirin) patients although they were hospitalized for long period (even 22 days!).
Do the authors have a comment on this?
Level of interest: An article whose findings are important to those with closely
related research interests
Quality of written English: Acceptable
Statistical review: No, the manuscript does not need to be seen by a
statistician.
