by Double-Balloon Endoscopy

Reviewer 1
- Thank you for your submission titled " Clinical characteristics of Dieulafoy’s Lesion in the
Small Bowel Diagnosed and Treated by Double-Balloon Endoscopy." This study was intended
to determine to reveal the clinical characteristics of Dieulafoy’s lesion in the small bowel as
diagnosed by DBE and consider whether it is possible to predict bleeding from Dieulafoy’s
lesion before endoscopy in OGIB.
- The article is well written.
- The design and statistical analysis is done thoroughly.
Although did not reveal any independent factor associated with re-bleeding, this article revealed
the clinical characteristics of Dieulafoy’s lesion.
Minor recommendations:
1. Abstract results section didn’t cover the clinical characteristics of Dieulafoy’s lesion
2. How to distinguish Dieulafoy’s lesion and vascular malformation or arteriovenous
malformation# The images by DBE maybe similar.
3. Lesion located in the deep duodenum could be diagnosis by gastroscopy. Could be discussed
in discussion section. Journal of Digestive Diseases 2017; 18; 618–624 And Journal of Digestive
Diseases 2017; 18; 56–58
