Title:The relationship between hepatic resistin overexpression and inflammation
in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis
Version:2Date:21 January 2014
Reviewer: ALEXANDER WREE
Reviewer's report:
Reviewer’s comment:
The manuscript by Shen et al. that describes the relationship between hepatic
resistin overexpression and inflammation in patients with non-alcoholic
steatohepatitis has improved significantly during the review process. Authors
were able to answer most questions raised in response to the first submission.
Minor comments:
1. The authors use multiple abbreviations in the text. Even if they are all properly
explained within the text one would expect a list of abbreviations.
With the suggested minor comment the manuscript by Shen et al. appears to be
acceptable for publication in BMC Gastroenterology.
Level of interest: An article whose findings are important to those with closely
related research interests
Quality of written English: Acceptable
Statistical review: No, the manuscript does not need to be seen by a statistician.
Declaration of competing interests:
