Version: 2 Date: 12 Jan 2025
Reviewer:  Lubna al#Gailani
Reviewer's report:
1. The text has formatting inconsistencies, such as excessive spacing.
2. Ensure  consistent citation formatting within the manuscript.
3. while the introduction provides a general background it lacks a focused hypothesis research
question.
4. The  figure while visually clear, need descriptive legends and explanations in the text. it is
unclear how the neural density was quantified (eg. stereology, image analysis software).
5. The discussion does not adequately connect the finding to the existing literature or elaborate
on their implication for human health.
