Title: Non-Foreign Body-Associated Risk Factors for Complications Associated with
Esophageal Foreign-Body Removal and Timing of Endoscopic Treatment: A Single-Center
Retrospective Study
Version: 2 Date: 08 Nov 2024
Reviewer:  Kengo Kasuga
Reviewer's report:
We think the authors were courteous in their response to our comments. Only the following
minor questions remain.
-We consider perforation and technical failure to be clinically important factors. It would be
more informative if risk factors for technical failure were also considered. The authors responded
that no information on technical failure was collected, but they did note that the treatment success
rate for esophageal foreign bodies was 97.8%. Analysis of risk factors for esophageal foreign
body treatment failure would be informative (e.g., treatment time, type of foreign body, size of
foreign body).
-If the authors did not include mentally retarded patients in their study or if the information was
not collected, it would be difficult to discuss. Maybe it is a limitation?
