Title: Acute cholecystitis in old adults: the impact of advanced age on the clinical characteristics
of the disease and on the surgical outcomes of laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Version: 1 Date: 23 Jun 2023
Reviewer's report:
Study design is flawed.
Study was aimed to compare complication/outcome between three age groups .There are so
many confounding variables between the groups which need to be matched before drawing
conclusions authors have drawn.
Authors should thoroughly review literature on the subject.
In case authors need to identify poor risk factors in patients with acute cholecystitis then they
should design study accordingly.
