Title:High-saturated fat diet delays diethylnitrosamine-induced hepatocellular
carcinoma
Version:7Date:21 August 2014
Reviewer: ALEXANDER WREE
Reviewer's report:
Reviewer’s comment:
The manuscript by Duan et al. has been significantly improved during the review
process. Improvement was demonstrated through the inclusion of the
macroscopic and microscopic liver images. However, the manuscript still remains
rather descriptive and as authors did not properly address questions raised in the
review process no improvement was achieved on the goal to provide convincing
mechanistic support of the reported findings.
Minor comments and errata
Table 1: Values for TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C are not in line with the rest of the
table.
Level of interest: An article of importance in its field
Quality of written English: Needs some language corrections before being
published
Statistical review: Yes, but I do not feel adequately qualified to assess the
statistics.
